Abstract
Based on determination of heavy metal contents in soils and plants, understanding pollution of heavy metal in soils and plants, as well as the heavy metal accumulation in plants, in order to provide scientific basis for phytoremediation of heavy metals in mining areas. The determination and analysis on the concent of Zn, Cu, Pb, Cd, Mn was made in Niuba and southern mining area in Gejiu City. The result showed that the soil pollution from Cd is the most serious while the pollution from Zn was relative to minimum in Niuba abandoned mining area. In southern mining area, Pb in soil pollution was the most serious while Cu was relative to minimum Analysis on correlation between the heavy metal content in plants and soils was made based on the 5 plant samples (Pyracantha fortuneana, Zea mays, Acroptilon repens, Equisetum ramosissimum and Cucurbita moschata) collected from Niuba reclamation area and 5 plant samples (Corylus yunnanensis, Alnus nepalensis, Pyracantha fortuneana,Cupressus torulosa,Acacia dealbata) from recovery area of southern mining area. The results show that Pyracantha fortuneana has a better correlation with soil than other plants, Cucurbita moschata and soil have poor correlation, Corylus yunnanensis has better correlation with soil compared to other plants, Acacia dealbata has poor correlation with soil.
