Abstract

Tailing dump of the mine Grot mine with more than 5.5 million tons of floated material is the highest altitude dump in Serbia. Vegetation is not developed on it at all. The behavior of heavy metals in the flotation tailing dump has recently been analyzed in the literature. Mineralized dust is observed on the surrounding soil demonstrating its recent pollution. This land is tilled in a primitive way. The analysis of soil shows the presence of heavy metals of anthropogenic origin. The concentrations of these materials vary with the configuration of terrain and weather conditions. Lead is the most toxic of found heavy metals in soil.
