Özet
The global demand for copper is vital for ensuring sustainable and healthy ecosystem-based regional development, as the uncontrolled release of element concentrations in surface dust samples (SDS) originating from various leaks in increasingly mining areas is paramount. This study aims to detect the presence of potentially toxic elements (PTEs), including cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), lead (Pb), nickel (Ni), and zinc (Zn) in SDS and to reveal possible human health effects. Additionally, it shows the distribution of potential ecological risk areas by adjusting the assessment area, combined with Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW) interpolation in the mining area. SDS pollution evaluation was carried out together with enrichment factor (EF), geo-accumulation index (Igeo), single factor contaminant index (PI), pollution load index (PLI), and human health risk assessment (HHRA), which showed an evident …
