In most mining activities, these waste tailings are left without proper management. The negative impact of these mining activities on the surroundings is m ainly due to the presence of high volumes of tailing. These tailings are usually unfavorable to the surrounding environment, contributing to the contamination of soil substrates, destruction of soil texture, short of nutrient, destruction of ecological diversity. Heavy metals are considered highly hazardous to ecosystems and humans, not only because of their direct toxicity to organisms but also due to their potential for bioaccumulation along the food chain. This is a global concern. Studies of natural and man-made environmental interaction of metals after mining have become increasingly important to society. Xiushan County is located in southwest China and is rich in Mn ore. Rongxi Manganese mine is one of the biggest mines in Xiushan County. This region is economically underdeveloped where mining is the most important pillar industry. Mining activities in this region has deleterious effects on the local environment due to deposition of large volumes of wastes on the soil. Finding out tolerant plants, which can adapt to the local climate and soil conditions, is a premise for soil remediation and vegetation restoration. The aim of this study is to examine the heavy metal concentrations in soils and dominant plants, and to determine plant-soil relationships for the various native species that grow directly on the mining tailings in the Rongxi Mn mine. This information can be used to establish guidelines in order to assess further revegetation options by selecting the most suitable plant species to revegetate the tailings. The contents of heavy metals (Mn, Cd, Cu, Zn and Pb) in soils and dominant plants were measured in Rongxi Manganese mine. Hakanson's ecological risk index and single-factor pollution index were employed to evaluate the heavy metal pollutions in soils and vegetables, respectively. The results showed that the average contents of Mn, Cd, Cu, Zn and Pb in soils collected from Manganese mining tailing were 48382.5, 3.91, 79.97, 131.23 and 80.68 mg/kg, respectively. Cd and Mn posed heavily ecological risks, while Cu, Zn and Pb posed light potentially ecological risk. The contents of Mn and Cd in the dry shoots of most dominant plants exceeded the upper limit of the normal range, while the contents of Cu, Zn and Pb fell within the normal range. According to the plant-soil relationships, plants were classified into three groups: accumulators, excluders and compartments. Accumulators such as Phytolacca americana L. and Polygonum lapathifolium Linn. absorbing high concentrations of heavy metals in the shoots are suitable to clean up the compound pollution of heavy metals. Compartments like Miscanthus sinensis Anderss. and Stenoloma chusanum Ching store high levels of heavy metals in the roots and transfer little to shoots. Excluders including Artemisia annua L., Desmodium sequax Wall., and Aster subulatus Michx. are the plants accumulating little heavy metals in their bodies though they grow on the severely polluted soil. The latter two can be used to remediate mine soils with higher heavy metals levels and low use value, and excluders had an important value in the study of plant heavy metal exclusion mechanism. The surrounding farmland soils were also mainly polluted by Cd. 参考文献 相似文献 引证文献
