Geochemistry some of heavy elements in rocks, sediments, and soils of Jableh sheet 1: 50,000 / Syria / and their environmental impact

This research focuses on determining the concentration of some heavy elements (lead, zinc, copper, and cadmium) in different types of rocks, soils, and sediments in geological sheet of Jableh. The mineralogical content was determined using the X-ray diffraction technies (XRD), and the concentration of the elements was determined using the wave polarograph device in the laboratories of the Syrian Atomic Energy Authority in Damascus.
