Movement of Elements between Soil and its Source Rock a Case Form Limestone Soil in Suzhou City, Anhui Province, China

Article Preview

Abstract:

The limestone soils and its source rock samples had been collected from Suzhou area for the testing about major and trace elements. The concentration value have been compared with the background and the migration coefficient(K) of element form source rock to soil have been calculated, the result showed: the elements Ca and Th are enrichment, the Al is loss seriously, the Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Zn, Rb, Sr., Zr, and Pb are basic fairly with the background value; the K, Cu, Fe and As are slightly higher than the soil background values; The elements Si, Ti, Mn, Zr, Pb and Th have high K in subsoil layer; the element Fe, Cr, As and Rb have the least K in subsoil layer; the element Al, V, Cu and Zn can be showed disorder with the more high migration coefficient in topsoil.
