Intake of potentially toxic elements to representatives of genus Pinus L. and Quercus L. at selected Slovak, Italian and Portuguese closed copper deposits

Andráš, Peter, 1953- Intake of potentially toxic elements to representatives of genus Pinus L. and Quercus L. at selected Slovak, Italian and Portuguese closed copper deposits / Peter Andráš ... [et al.]. -- The research was realized at four abandoned copper deposits: at Ľubietová (Podlipa dump-field, Slovakia), Libiola and Caporciano (Italy) and São Domingos (Portugal). The highest Fe contents in soil are at Libiola (x = 13.75 %). For this deposit are characteristic also high Cu (Cu (x = 3654 mg.kg-1) and Ni (x = 717 mg.kg-1) contents. Similary high Cu contents (x = 0.73 %), were described also at Caporciano. In anthrosol at São Domingos are extraordinary high Pb (x = 2219 mg.kg-1), Zn (x = 765 mg.kg-1) and As (x= 1072 mg.kg-1) contents. The results of the potentially toxic elements contamination study of the representatives of the genus Pinus L. and Quercus L. at four abandoned but historically important European Cu-deposits Ľubietová (Slovakia), Libiola and Caporciano (Italy) a São Domingos (Portugal) are relatively complicated. The plant contamination at mining areas in comparison with reference areas substantially differ. At the mining areas show the plants much more bioaccumulation of potentially toxic elements in their tissues. The bioavailability of individual potentially toxic elements is varied but generally relatively limited. Most of the studied plants are excluders (BCF<1). Only Ag show extraordinary high degree of bioconcentration. Also BCF values in Pinus sp. from Ľubietová indicate high level of Pb and Zn bioaccumulation. Zinc is accumulated in needles at all four Cu-deposits. The rest of the metals is accumulated preferentially in roots
