Abstract
The paper aims to go into the impact of some heavy metal contamination in the
 Sulaimani province groundwater for irrigation purpose. Water samples were collected
 from (36) locations in the study area that not the same and the heavy metals such as
 (Iron, Zinc, Copper and Manganese) were finding out by using Atomic Absorption
 Spectrophotometer. Heavy metal contamination appraisal in ground water required
 cognition of pre anthropogenic metal concentrations to act as a reference against which
 measured values can be compared. Groundwater taint by heavy metal was
 accomplished using Enrichment Factor (EF), Metal Contamination Index (MCI),
 Contamination Factor (CF), Pollution Index (PI), Contamination degree (Cd),
 modified Contamination Degree (mCd), Pollution load Index (PLI) and Index of geo
 accumulation (Igeo). Established on the above exponents, the results indicate the study
 groundwater resources to be very low degree of contamination.
