Following the recent incident of lead poisoning in Zamfara State of Nigeria, interest in the levels of heavy metals in environmental samples from the affected areas has increased. In this regard, we collected and analysed water and soil/sediment samples of Bagega artisanal gold mining region using flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (AAS) to assess the levels of heavy metals.
For many of our people, life really has been a walk on the edge of a ledge. People in the quest for no more than a daily bread have no choice but to risk it all.
In respect of the other associated heavy metals, the highest concentration of As (173.20 ppm) and Cd (10 ppm) were also recorded at the Anka mineral ore processing site, while the maximum Zn concentration (1,657 ppm) was recorded at Kwalli mine site. 4.1 Mining and Mineral Ore Processing Sites At the Anka mineral ore processing site, Pb and Hg ...

Natural weathering of lead-rich gold ores before mining formed abundant, highly gastric-bioaccessible lead carbonates. The same fingerprint of lead minerals found in all sample types confirms that ore processing caused extreme contamination, with up to 185,000 ppm lead in soils/sweep samples and up to 145 ppm lead in plant foodstuffs.
Toxicity from heavy metals has been documented throughout history. However, the recent outbreak of acute poisoning by heavy metals, particularly lead (Pb) among the rural dwellers of Bagega District in Anka Local Government of Zamfara State, Nigeria, where gold mining activity has been taking place, happened to be the worst heavy metal poisoning …
Soil samples were collected each within different depth (0-5cm, 10-15cm and 20-30cm) of contaminated (Bagega ore-processing) site and non-contaminated site (Anka) respectively.
