Many researchers have investigated most representative sequential extraction method using various reagents for determining the chemical forms of metals in soils and sediments. In this paper, a newly modified method for sequential extraction scheme based on Tessier's method by Environmental Geochemistry Research, Centre for Environmental Technology, Imperial College, was introduced and examined. In comparison with Tessier's method, originally designed for sediment analysis by Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS), the sequential extraction scheme has been developed for the multi-element analysis by Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrometry (ICP-AES). The partitioning of particulate trace elements was classified into five fractions: (i) exchangeable, (ii) bound to carbonates or specially adsorbed, (iii) bound to Fe and Mn oxides, (iv) bound to organic matter and sulphides and (v) residuals. The experimental results of the pilot study for in-house reference material (HRM2) and certified international standard reference material (SRM2711) using the modified method showed not only reasonable precision and accuracy but also acceptable overall recovery rates. In addition, mine dump soils sampled in the Dalsung Cu-W mine, Korea were prepared and sequentially extracted using the method. Most of Cu was bound to organic matter/sulphides and residual fractions. The dominant fraction of soil Pb and Zn in the study area was found in the residuals. The fraction of Cd showed a wide variation between samples and could be found bound to the carbonates or specially adsorbed, oxides, organic fraction and residuals. The recovery rates of Cd, however, were poor due to relatively low Cd concentrations in soils. The heavy metals in these mine dumps appear to be in the more inert forms and should not be readily bioavailable. The soils, however, had very low pH values (average 4.1) and had sandy textures; consequently, rapid infiltration of rainfall may increase leaching of Zn and Cd which were found to be around 5 to 10% of the exchangeable fraction. As a result of the investigation of this study, it has been strongly recommended that these mine waste materials should still be considered a significant contaminant source and will need environmental remediation to prevent pollutants from being released into the environment.

정명채,Jung Myung-Chae 한국지하수토양환경학회 2005 지하수토양환경 Vol.10 No.3

중금속과 황산이온의 농도가 높은 산성광산배수(AMD)를 배출하는 강원도 정선군에 위치한 삼척탄좌 정암광업소 유출수를 대상으로 제강 슬래그, 우분 및 석회석 등을 활용하여 처리실험을 수행하였다. Batch test와 적용성 시험 결과, 원수 1 L당 15 g의 제강 슬래그, 15 g의 우분 및 500 g의 석회석이 최적의 기질물질 양으로 조사되었다. 이를 기초로 제강 슬래그, 우분과 석회석으로 충진한 SAPS조, 침전조, 산화조 순서로 구성된 처리시스템을 구성하였다. 총 54일간 시행된 실험결과, 원수에 비해 pH의 상승(3.0에서 8.3)과 더불어 61%의 황산염이온 농도가 저감되었다 (1,042 mg/L에서 409 mg/L). 또한, 초기농도 대비 최종 방류수의 중금속 처리효율은 매우 높은 수준으로써 99.9% 이상의 Al, Fe, Zn과 92.6% Mn이 제거되었다. 즉, 제강 슬래그, 우분 및 석회석을 활용하면 산성광산수의 중화와 금속 침전효과를 얻을 수 있음을 확인하였다. In order to remediate acid mine drainage (AMD) from the Jeongam coal mine, steel mill slag, cow manure and limestone were used. As a result of batch test, the proper amounts for treating 1 L of acid mine water from the mine were determined as 15 g of steel mill slag, 15 g of cow manure and 500 g of limestone. After feasibility test, remediation system was arranged in the order of steel mill slag tank combination of cow manure and limestone, precipitation tank and oxidation tank. During 54 days' operations, the pH values of the treated waters increased from 3.0 to 8.3 and 61 % of sulfate concentration in an initial water was decreased. In addition, the removal efficiencies for metals in the water were nearly 99.9% for Al, Fe, Zn and 92.6% for Mn. Thus, the combination of steel mill slag, cow manure and limestone can be used as neutralization 때d metal removal for acid mine drainage.

In order to investigate the extent and degree of Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn contamination affected by mining activities of the Dalsung Cu~W mine, sampling of stream sediments and waters has been undertaken up to 1.5 km downstream from the mine at 50~150 meter intervals. Analysis of the samples was carried out using ICP-AES for Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn. Physical and chemical properties of sediments (pH, organic matter contents, cation exchange capacity) and waters (pH, Eh and temperature) were also measured. The properties of the sediment samples were characterized by low pH (3.0~5.5), low organic matter contents (2~5%) and a moderate degree of cation exchange capacity (7~15 meq/100 g) with a high proportion of sand fraction. The pH values of water samples ranged from 3.0 to 5.0 and the Eh levels were in the range of 350~530 mV. Concentrations of Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn in the sediments averaged 3.2 mg/kg, 1,390 mg/kg, 451 mg/kg and 262 mg/kg with the range of 0.6~11.4 mg/kg, 15~3,800 mg/kg, 14~1,330 mg/kg and 63~1,060 mg/kg, respectively. Significant levels of the heavy metals were also found in the water samples with the range of $10{\sim}170{\mu}gCd/l$, $300{\sim}41,600{\mu}gCu/l$, $10{\sim}80{\mu}gPb/l$ and $700{\sim}15,400{\mu}gZn/l$. These elevated concentrations in the sediments and waters may be caused by the weathering of mine waste materials and their high solubilities under acidic and/or oxidizing conditions. Although metal concentrations in the samples decrease with the distance from the mine, heavy metal contamination of sediments and waters were also found at the 1.5 km downstream due to the mobile conditions of the heavy metals, with particular reference to Cd and Zn in stream waters.

국내 휴/폐광 금속광산 주변의 중금속 환경오염 평가

정명채(Myung Chae Jung),정문영(Moon Young Jung),최연왕(Yun Wang Choi) 대한자원환경지질학회 2004 자원환경지질 Vol.37 No.1

이 연구의 목적은 국내의 휴폐광 금속광산의 중금속 오염을 종합적으로 평가하는 것이다. 그 동안정부와 지방자치단체 및 개별 연구자에 의해 이루어진 휴폐광 금속광산의 중금속 오염도를 종합적으로 조사한 결과, 주요 오염물질은 광미를 포함한 광산폐기물이었다. 이들로부터 다양한 유독성 물질, 특히 As, Cd, Cu, Pb 및 Zn 등이 바람과 물에 의해 하부 수계로 이동되어 환경문제를 일으키고 있다. 그 결과 많은 광산들 주변에서 다량의 As 및 중금속이 검출되었으며, 일부는 토양환경보전법의 우려기준 및 대책기준을 초과하고 있다. 초과 항목 중에서는 비소의 초과 빈도가 가장 높았으며 그 다음으로 Cd, Cu, Pb, Zn 등의 오염 빈도도 높은 편이었다. 국가에서 지속적인 광해방지사업을 시행함에도 불구하고 아직도 많은 광산에서 오염물질이 배출되고 있는 실정이다. 특히, 다양한 추출법을 적용하여 오염물질의 추출량을 조사한 결과, 광미 및 토양은 지구화학적 특성을 잘 반영하고 있다. 종합적으로 볼 때, 정부주도로 휴폐광산의 관리를 위한 전담기구의 설치가 필요하다 The objective of this study is to review of environmental assessment of heavy metals derived from various metalliferous mines in Korea. As a results of national wide research for heavy metal contaminations in the vicinity of metalleferous mines, the main contaminants are mine waste materials including tailings. From the materials, toxic elements including As, Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn can be dispersed into downstream through wind and water. Thus, soils around the mines contain elevated levels of those elements, which are over the guide values for environmental regulation of soils in Korea. Arsenic is one of the most important elements contaminated by mining activities, to a less extent, Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn. In spite of remediation works for some metal mines by the government, there are still lots of abandoned mines which are necessary for reclamation of mining sites. This study also includes that metal concentrations in soils and tailings can be varied upon various decomposition methods including 0.1N HCl and aqua regia and sequential extraction scheme, with differences in each element, too. This may be due to geochemical characteristics of the elements, such as solubility, mobility and chemical forms in the geochemical environment. Finally, it is suggested that a certain organization should be runned by Korean government for management of abandoned mines.

함(含)우라늄 흑색(黑色)세일 분포지역(分布地域)에서의 유독성원소(有毒性元素)들의 분산(分散)에 관한 지구화학적(地球化學的) 연구(硏究)

전효택,정명채,Chon, Hyo-Taek,Jung, Myung-Chae 대한자원환경지질학회 1991 자원환경지질 Vol.24 No.3

Surficial dispersion patterns of heavy metals and toxic elements (U, Mo, Cu, Zn, Fe, Mn, Co, Cr, V, Ni, Pb, and Cd) were investigated in the Dukpyungri, Goesan area covered with low grade uranium-bearing black shales. Maximum abundance of U in the black shale was 455ppm. Radioactivity was counted at a maximum of 7cps in black shales, and was less than 0.5cps in shales, slates, and oil shales of the control areas. Enrichment of Mo, V, Cu, Zn, Cd, and Pb in black shales is particularly characteristic compared with shales, slates, and oil shales of the control areas, whereas contents of Mn, Cr, Co, and Th in all rock samples tend to be almost similar. Residual top soils (0~15cm depth) over black shales show high contents of Mo, Cu, Zn, Ni, Cd, and V in comparison with the control areas. Contents of trace elements in subsoils (15~30cm depth) were higher about one and half times than those in topsoils. Average contents of Mo, Cu, Pb, Zn, Cd and V in garden soil and playground soil of an elementary school in Dukpyungri, Goesan area, were high about two to fifteen times compared with the control areas. Contents of trace elements in stream sediments were higher from two to eight times than those in residual soils. Sodium, AI, K, V, Cr, and Fe were more enriched in the roots of pine than in the twigs of pine. Contents of Li, AI, V, Ni, Cd, Fe, and Co were higher in the roots of azalea than in the twigs of azalea. Enrichment of P, Ca, and Mg was remarkable in the twigs of both pine and azalea. Biological absorption coefficients for essential elements (Zn, P, Mn, Ca and K)tend to be high, whereas those for the non-essential elements.(Ba, Ti, V, and Mo) and toxic elements(Cr, Co, Pb and Ni) be low. Less mobile elements (Pd, Cd, and Co) tend to show anomalies with higher contrast than more mobile elements(Mo, V, Zn, Cu and Ni) in the area covered with black shales.

The objective of this study is to investigate the contents and seasonal variation of arsenic in soils and crop plant(rice) in paddy fields around the abandoned metal mines in Korea. The soils were extracted by various methods including aqua regia, 1 M $MgCl_2$, 0.01 M $CaCl_2$ and 0.05 M EDTA to evaluate the relationships between soils and crop plants(rice). According to correlation analysis, statistically significant correlation with the four methods(p<0.01) were found in soils extracted by various chemical solutions and arsenic contents in soils were decreased in the order of 1M $MgCl_2$ > 0.01M $CaCl_2$ > 0.05 M EDTA. Biological accumulation coefficients(BACs) of rice stalks were higher than those of rice grain, and the coefficients under reducing(August) environment were higher than those under oxidizing conditions(October). Assuming the rice consumption of 315 g/day by farm households in Korea, the amount of daily intake of arsenic were estimated to be 77.8 ${\mu}g/day$. The daily intake of arsenic from the rice estimates up to 65% of ADI(acceptable daily intake) that the FAO/WHO Joint Food Additive and Contaminants Committee has set to evaluate their safeties. 이 연구는 국내 휴폐금속광산 주변의 논토양과 식물(벼)의 비소 오염과 계절적 변화를 고찰하고, 토양과 식물의 유기적 관계규명을 위해 토양시료를 왕수, 1 M $MgCl_2$, 0.01 M $CaCl_2$ 및 0.05 M EDTA 등 다양한 추출제로 전처리하여 비소를 분석하였다. 화학분해 방법에 따른 함량 변화는 통계적으로 유의한 양의 상관관계를 보이며(p<0.01), 1 M $MgCl_2$ >0.01 M $CaCl_2$ >0.05 M EDTA 순으로 나타났다. 벼줄기의 생물학적 농축계수는 산화환경보다 환원환경에서 높았으며, 백미시료에서는 농축계수가 0.02로 낮게 나타났다. 농가의 1일 평균 쌀소비량인 315 g을 적용하여 세계보건기구의 미량원소 1일 섭취 최대허용량과 비교한 결과 농가에서는 65%의 높은 섭취량을 보여, 이들 쌀 소비에 의한 비소의 인체섭취도에 중요한 역할을 하고 있음을 확인하였다.

This study examined evaluation on stabilization of major and trace elements in tailings by various surface water-preventing materials. Six columns were filled with tailings of the Sinlim mine, then covered with tailings only, compacted soils, clay, soil-bentonite mixture, pozzolan and bentonite mat. After injection of artificial rain water, the leachate was sampled with times (3, 6, 9 and 12 pore volume) and analysed for major (Ca, Na, Mg, K) and trace elements (As, Cd, Cu, Pb, Zn) by ICP-AES. With exception to pozzolan type, the pH values of leachate from the other types became stabilized from 5.5 to 7.5, and EC (electric conductivity) of leachate from them decreased with times. For the pozzolan type, however, the pH and EC of leachate increased with time due to its alkalinity producing system. Concentrations of most major and trace elements in leachate decreased and stabilized with time. Consequently, soil-bentonite mixed cover shows the best ability of water-preventing and reducing mobility of elements in tailings site.

This study presents a state of the art in evaluation on naturally occurring asbestos (NOA) areas and effective strategies for investigation and management of NOA areas in Korea. First of all, we defined and classified the NOA area as compiling various countries' regulations, then discussed the best methods for evaluation and management of NOA for reducing exposure of asbestos in the vicinity of NOA areas. According to the literature survey, a three-steps management strategy was suggested in this study. The first step is a confirmation stage of asbestos contamination possibility and the second step is an assessment stage of asbestos contamination using investigation, analysis, evaluation and reclamation. The final step is a following-up control stage. These three management steps for NOA area will give the maximum effectiveness of NOA control in Korea.

이 연구는 휴광된 문명광산 주변의 토양과 식물의 유기적 관계규명을 위해 토양시료를 왕수, 1 M $MgCl_2$, 0.01 M $CaCl_2$ 및 0.05 M EDTA 등 다양한 추출제로 전처리하여 As 및 중금속을 분석하였다. 화학분해 방법에 따른 함량은 왕수 > 0.01 M $CaCl_2$ > 1 M $MgCl_2$ > 0.05 M EDTA 순으로 나타났으며 통계적으로 유의한 양의 상관관계를 보였다(p<0.01). 원소별 생물학적 농축계수(BAC)는 Cd, Cu 및 Zn 함량이 As와 Pb에 비해 상대적으로 높은 결과를 얻었다. 이 연구에서 식물농도에 영향을 주는 물리화학적 특성을 이용하여 단계별 다중선형회귀분석을 수행하였으며, 그 결과는 As 및 중금속의 농도 예측에 유용하게 사용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 농가의 1일 평균 쌀소비량인 287 g을 적용하여 세계보건기구의 미량원소 1일 섭취 최대허용량과 비교한 결과 Cd와 As에서 각각 73.7%, 51.8%의 높은 섭취량을 보였다. 그러므로 현재까지 발현되지는 않았지만 광산주변 거주자들이 지역에서 재배된 쌀을 장기간 섭취할 경우 As 및 중금속 농축에 의한 건강의 악영향이 발생될 수 있으므로 적절한 처리가 요구된다. This study has focused on investigation of correlation for As and heavy metals in paddy soil and rice crops sampled in the vicinity of the abandoned Munmyung Au-Ag mine. Soil samples extracted by various methods including aqua regia, 1 M $MgCl_2$, 0.01 M $CaCl_2$ and 0.05 M EDTA were analyzed for As and heavy metals (Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn). Rice grain samples grown on the soils were also analyzed for the same elements to evaluate the relationships between soils and rice crops. According to soil extraction methods, As and heavy metal contents in the soils were decreased in the order of aqua regia > 0.01 M $CaCl_2$ > 1 M $MgCl_2$ > 0.05 M EDTA. In addition to correlation analysis, statistically significant correlation with the four extraction methods (p<0.01) were found in the soil and rice samples. As calculation of biological accumulation coefficients (BACs) of the rice crops for As and heavy metals, the BACs for Cd, Zn and Cu were relatively higher than those for As and Pb. This study also carried out a stepwise multiple linear regression analysis to identify the dominant factors influencing metal extraction rates of the paddy soils. Furthermore, daily intakes of As and heavy metals from regularly consumed the rice grain (287 g/day) grown on the contaminated soils by the mining activities were estimated, and found that Cd and As intakes from the rice reached up to 73.7% and 51.8% for maximum allowance levels of trace elements suggested by WHO, respectively. Therefore, long-term consumption of the rice poses potential health problems to residents around the mine, although no adverse health effects have yet been observed.
