Heavy metal density inside Romplumb Baia Marewas measured to a depth of 100 cm. Spatial distribution of heavy metals in soil layers is extremely varied. In somecases, there has been an excessive concentration of 27770 mg/kg and values 60 times higher than the accepted limit. In2010 as compared to 2005, experimental results indicate that heavy metal concentration dropped at 0 - 10 cm depth ¨Cbecause this layer consists of filling material; in 2010 compared to 2005, heavy metal concentration increased between75 - 100 cm depth, because pollutants migrated in time, leading to massive pollution. %K heavy metals %K soil %K pollution %K assessment %U http://proenvironment.ro/promediu/article/viewFile/5493/5126
