Abstract

Cheshmeh-Zard Au-As-Sb mining area is located in south west of Nyshabour. Twenty one samples were collected from vein mineralization, stream sediments and agricultural land, as well as seven samples from drinking and spring WATERs from Arghash and Hassanabad villages. Based on high level of ARSENIC and antimony contamination, two areas were recognized in vein mineralization and surrounding drainages as follows: 1) Gold-arsenic ± antimony vein mineralization in Cheshmehzard village. 2) Antimony-arsenic vein mineralization in southeast of Arghash village. These areas can be the source of environmental contamination in this region and ecosystem of district has been affected by them. Based on comparison with USEPA standard, the ARSENIC and antimony in the collected samples from agricultural land were lower than standard limit. Unfortunately, ARSENIC in the drinking WATER of Hassanabad village was 23 times and antimony was 3 times more than standard. High contents of ARSENIC and antimony are dangerous to people who lived in the study area. These two heavy metals may cause cancer and skin problems for the people, which detailed studies, need to be done on the reasons of death in villages. Thus, it is recommended to supply the healthy drinking WATER for the people from nearby.
