Rezumat

Soils samples collected during different ecogeochemical investigations of the biggest Cu-Mo mining area in Armenia the city of Kajaran were subjected to the multivariate geostatistical analysis and geochemical mapping. In addition, human health risk assessment from ingestion pathway was done for the contents of Pb, Cu, Zn, Co, Mo, Mn, Ti and Fe. Multivariate geostatistical analysis, as well as, geochemical mapping of Ti, Fe, Mn, Co, Cu, Zn, Mo and Pb contents showed that two distinct groups were formed. The first natural group includes Ti, Mn, Fe and Co while the second group contains Cu, Zn, Mo and Pb which contents in the city soils supposed to have an anthropogenic origin. Excesses vs. MAC observed for Mo, Cu, Pb, Zn and Mn in 60.5%, 98.7%, 15.8%, 26.3% and 26.3% of all samples, respectively. The risk assessment showed that Mo was the only studied element which poses a non-carcinogenic risk to adults and children health in some sampling sites. Moreover, in all studied locations multi-elemental non-carcinogenic risk to children health from all studied heavy metals were detected. Particular attention was given to the soils of kindergarten territories, and the results indicated that Hazard index in kindergartens is near 1. The results of this study can serve as a base for the development and implementation of risks reduction measures and systematic monitoring program planning.
