Effects of mercury mining regions from NW Dinarides on quality of stream sediments

Two mercury mining regions from the NW Dinarides are compared with respect to their impact on related drainage basins (of Soča and Kupa Rivers). Stream sediments of the rivers Idrijca, Bača and Soča, which drain the area around world-class mercury ore deposit in Idrija (Slovenia), as well as those from the Čabranka and Kupa Rivers, that drain the area around a smaller Hg-only deposit at Tršće near Čabar (Croatia) have been studied, by detailed mineralogical, chemical and geostatistical studies. According to the results, the Idrijca River is highly contaminated with several toxic elements in the town of Idrija. Concentrations (in ppm = mg/kg) were determined in fractions <63 &micro ; ; ; ; m and 63 &#8211; 500 &micro ; ; ; ; m respectively: Hg (9000 and 65000), As (16 and 19.5), Cr (40 and 91), Cu (380 and 113), Pb (55 and 2940). Contamination with Hg, As and Pb persists in downstream Idrijca, as well as in Soča downstream from the confluence with Idrijca. Concentrations of some other trace elements (Zn, Ba, Ni, Cr, Co and Cu) increase in seaward direction. In Soča River drainage basin it was found that in the fraction <63 &micro ; ; ; ; m Hg shows significant correlation with S, Zn, As, Cu, Sn, U, Mo, W and Sb. In the fraction 63 &#8211; 500 &micro ; ; ; ; m significant correlation of Hg was found with S, Fe, Zn, Ni, Pb, Cr, As, Cu, Sn, Zr, Mo, Cd, Sb, Tl and Bi. On the contrary, in the Kupa drainage basin, the closed Hg-mine in Tršće had only a minor effect on stream sediments. The highest measured concentration of Hg (206 ppb = &micro ; ; ; ; g/kg) was determined at the confluence of Kupa and Čabranka Rivers. Significant correlation of Hg (in the fraction <63 &micro ; ; ; ; m) was found with Zn, Pb, Cu, Au, Li and Cd. The geochemical baseline for Hg in Kupa drainage basin was determined for the first time as 86.1 &plusmn ; ; ; ; 47.3 ppb = &micro ; ; ; ; g/kg. With respect to Hg, the basin shows characteristics of a very clean system.
