Journal of Sustainable Natural Resources, 2022 The level of concentration of heavy metal in soil is detrimental to groundwater quality in Sharada and Bompai industrial areas. A total of 40 sampling points were selected from both two areas. The digested samples were analysed for As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Co, Ni and Pb using Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES) machine.

Assessment of Heavy Metal Contamination in Sediments of the Shitalakhya River, Bangladesh
Pakistan Journal of Analytical & Environmental Chemistry, 2021 Sediment samples collected from the river Shitalakhya, Bangladesh, were analyzed using atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) to investigate site-to-site (spatial) and seasonal (i.e., dry, pre-monsoon, post-monsoon) variation of Cr, Mn, Ni, Cu and Zn.

Journal of Degraded and Mining Lands Management, 2023 Mercury is a hazardous contaminant, and it is necessary to clean up Hg contamination on an ongoing basis. However, Hg contamination and ecological risks have not become a particular concern in the community. As a first step, this study evaluated the environmental risk assessment of Hg contamination/pollution in ex-gold mining soil.
