Concentrations and distribution trends of selected heavy metals (Fe, Mn, Cu, Pb, Zn, Cd, Cr,
Ni and As) in sediment samples, soil and dust particulates across the rock quarrying districts …

The study area is characterized by ubiquitous ore deposits within the underlying Asu River
Group of the southern Benue Trough of Nigeria. The extensive mineralization resulted in …

The human health risk assessment associated with heavy metals contained in sources of
drinking water within the catchment area of some dumpsites in FCT Abuja were carried out …

Potentially toxic metals concentration and pollution in mining areas have become a major
environmental concern. Predicting the toxic metals (Pb, Cd, Ni, Co, Zn, Mn, Fe, and Cu) in …

This study is aimed at determining the level of environmental degradation as well as the
concentration of trace elements in soil and stream sediments in order to evaluate the …

Major and trace element compositions of lignite from the Tertiary Ogwashi-Asaba formation,
Southern Nigeria, have been investigated to determine the prevailing environmental …

This work presents an attempt to establish the degree of anthropogenic influences of
selected trace metals distribution in soils from Calabar area of south-eastern Nigeria. Fe …

Soils and sediments have the capacity to accumulate metals, and this is usually controlled
by their certain properties. The concentration levels of these metals may pose a threat to the …

This study documents the baseline geochemistry of sediments in portions of the Eastern
Niger Delta, focusing on the distribution of selected heavy metals (Pb, Zn, Cd, Cr, As and Ni) …

Analyses of forty water samples from rivers and their tributaries were conducted to evaluate
the effect of seasonality on chemistry of the Eastern Niger Delta drainage basin. Results …
