Abstract

In the article, the impact of the mining complex on the soil of the adjacent territory is considered. The basic trends of accumulation of heavy metals in soils, their mobility are shown. The priority heavy metals accumulated in the soil cover are identified. The dynamics of the content of pollutants, which shows that in the area of the influence of the mining enterprise, the technogenic pollution zone is being formed, but most of contaminant metals are within the range of permissible concentrations. The dynamics of accumulation of heavy metals of the territory allows us to predict contamination and impact on the biotic component of the environment.

Keywords

heavy metals, mining enterprise, industrial pollution, soil.
