Abstract
The article discusses various limited considerations and assumptions on the positive or negative impact of geochemical features chemical elements found in rocks, ores, soil, plants, water and in the air of the territories of populated areas, factories, the mining and agro-industrial complexes to the environment and the role of analytical geochemistry in this process. According to the author, one of the main points on which the light should be shed is the role of finding elements (independent, combination or isomorphic mixture) rather than their existence in different amounts in the environment. Thus, the chemical elements can be more or less hazardous to environment regardless its amount, but the finding methods. Chemical and natural combinations can be either very hazardous or very useful to all living creatures depending on their characteristics, so it’s better to determine their environmental hazardousness via their impact to a particular human or animal organ which in turn facilitates the solution of the problem. Moreover, it should be noted that the most environmentally dangerous and active chemical elements are the ones with fluctuating valence. Some elements are not so hazardous when they are independent or in solid form since they change weakly. But they are very dangerous when they turn into liquid or gas forms and create mineral compounds with other elements such as halkofil group of elements which in turn can easily decompose and dissolve in water by causing dangers to all living creatures in the nature. Approximately any chemical element can either react negatively or in most cases stimulate the life functions of the organs of animals and plants depending on its finding forms. The study of geochemical parameters in different natural objects such as surface and subsoil water, air, rocks and ores can be very helpful in organizing the protection of environmetal and the solution of its problems. X-ray Spectral analysis is particularly highlighted in this article for identifying various chemical elements in geological and ecological objects. There are several advantages of X-ray Spectral analysis such as its productiveness and low cost, the expressiveness and simplicity of analysis operations, having slightly high sensitivity, universality, high range of elements identification features, etc. To conclude some authors claim that the following problems can be solved with the help of analytic geochemistry: Identifying the main source of pollution and the evaluation of its impact on the environment; Identification of quantitative and qualitative parameters of sources of natural, techno and agro genic pollution in the settlements, industrial objects and in the regions of developed mining complexes; Eco-geochemical and biochemical evaluation of the negative impact of water, weather and harmful geochemical anomalies on live organisms. We hope the elimination of this type of problems can pave the way to the ecologically clean environment. Keywords: ore, soil, plant, water, weather.
