| Description |
Groundwater contamination with heavy metals released from mining activities is a worldwide environmental problem. The leachate generated from minewaste and overburden dumps may have the potential to pollute the surrounding water resources. It comprises overburden, run-of-mine rock as well as discard, slurry and tailings from the preparation/ beneficiation or extraction plants assessment of heavy metals contamination in soils using data on the total content of the individual heavy metals. In the process of mining huge amounts of water discharged on surface to facilitate the mining operation. Groundwater is the principal source of drinking water in our country and is that once contaminated; it is difficult to restore its quality. Hence, there
is a need and concern for the protection and management of groundwater quality. Anthropogenic activities and improper management of natural resources also led to unequal distribution of major and minor elements in nature. In district Dhanbad in all 9 block five villages were randomly selected to study chemical properties through chemical analysis of groundwater sampled from wells and hand pumps which ever was available to study pH, EC, TDS, Salinity, Fe, Mn and Zn concentration.In this paper the variation of ground water quality results were shown by utilizing GIS as a tool
