Abstract
The regularities of Sr absorption by different Quaternary fluvioglacial sediments, containing groundwater within the Khibiny massif, have been studied. The studied sediments have been shown to adsorb Sr as a result of the cation exchange and complexing on the solid phase surface, which is responsible for the absorbing capacity of the sediments in the wide range of natural water pH. The base exchange capacity of Sr has been established to largely depend on the concentration of the macrocomponents (Ca2+ and Mg2+) in the groundwater. It has been noted that the migration mobility of Sr is low under the conditions of almost neutral water typical of the soil horizon in the studied area.
