The present research evaluated the phytoremediation potential of three selected plant species Tamarix. spp, Haloxylon. spp and Malcolmia Africana to remediate gold mine tailings in the center of Iran. To improve the ecological capability of the tailing dam and contaminated soil, two treatments of contaminated (tailing dam) and control (surrounding area of the gold mine) were chosen. The associated tailing and plants' shoot and root samples were collected and analyzed for total metal concentrations of Cobalt, Chromium, Strontium, Thorium, Titanium and Uranium. Translocation Factor (TF), BioAccumulation Coefficient (BAC) and Bioconcentration Factor (BCF) were estimated to assess the plant species potential for phytoremediation. Results indicated that Tamarix. spp showed the best growth on contaminated site (by height of 44.05 cm and weight of 105.3 mg) as compared to Haloxylon. spp and Malcolmia Africana. Metal accumulation rate was observed to be maximized in all three species; by 28.37%, 35.5% and 12.96% of Sr and 20.28%, 9.85% and 31.7% of Ti for Tamarix. Spp, Haloxylon. Spp and Malcolmia Africana, respectively. The study showed that Malcolmia Africana is the best accumulator of Strontium with TF, BAC and BCF of higher than one for both control and contaminated treatments. Also Tamarix. spp can translocate large amounts of Strontium, Thorium, Titanium and Uranium from roots to shoots as well as Strontium and Titanium for Haloxylon. spp.
