GEOGENIC ARSENIC AND ANTIMONY ANOMALIES DETECTED IN EMET (KÜTAHYA) NEOGENE BASIN SOIL

Year 2011, Issue: 025, 91 - 102, 15.08.2011

Abstract

Concentrations of arsenic and antimony, which are important with respect to environmental health,

indicate a very high anomaly values in Emet-Hisarcık soils. As and Sb minerals were deposited due

magmatic activity resulted in hydrothermal events.

370 soil samples have been analyzed in the basin covering the 600 km2. In the aresenic dispersion

model, basic value is under 100 ppm. Anomaly values reach to 2400 ppm. Compared between average

arsenic value in the world and the values obtained in this study, concentration of arsenic. Indicate a

high value. In the antimony dispersion model, basic valu is 1 ppm. In contrast, anomaly values reach

to the 790 ppm. It is necessary to indicate that increase in antimony values can not be ignored because

of their high content.

EMET (KÜTAHYA) NEOJEN HAVZASI TOPRAKLARINDA SAPTANAN JEOJENİK ARSENİK VE ANTİMON ANOMALİLERİ

Year 2011, Issue: 025, 91 - 102, 15.08.2011

Abstract

Çevre sağlığı açısından önemli olan Arsenik ve Antimon derişimleri Emet-Hisarcık bölgesindeki topraklarda çok

yüksek anomali değerleri göstermektedir. Magmatik aktivitenin neden olduğu hidrotermal getirimlerle As ve Sb

mineralleri oluşmuştur.

Havzayı oluşturan 600 km2 lik alanda 370 adet toprak örneği analiz edilmiştir. Geliştirilen Arsenik dağılım

modelinde temel değer 100 ppm’in altında ve anomali değerleri ise 2400 ppm’e kadar varan derişimlere

ulaşmaktadır. Dünya toprak As değerleri ortalaması (2 ppm), bu değerlerle karşılaştırıldığında As

konsantrasyonunun ciddi değerlerde olduğu görülür. Antimon dağılım modelinde ise temel değer 1 ppm olarak

belirlenirken anomali değerleri ise 790 ppm’e ulaşmaktadır. Antimondaki artış da göz ardı edilemeyecek kadar

önemlidir.
