Özet
The concentrations of Sr, Tl, and V in soils and plant organs were evaluated at a copper mining site. These are heavy metals that are extremely dangerous and harmful to human and environmental health and, therefore, are on the ATSDR substance priority list. Within the scope of the study, soil samples were taken from different soil depths in the spoil area, the rehabilitation area where planting was performed and adult trees that were at least 20 years old, and the forest area. Soil samples were taken from the rehabilitation and forest areas where Pinus nigra Arnold., Pinus sylvestris L., and Robinia pseudoacacia L. species grow, and leaf, bark, wood, and root samples were taken from trees in the same areas. The study evaluated variations in heavy metal concentrations in soils based on species and soil depth and in plants based on plant species and organs. The study found that the heavy metal concentrations in soils and plant organs generally varied depending on plant species, while these variations were insignificant depending on soil depth. The highest concentrations by species were generally obtained for Sr in Robinia pseudoacacia and for Tl and V in Pinus nigra.
