Abstract:

In order to evaluate impact of the Shimen Realgar Mine for the environment, in 2015, we collected surface water samples from 21 sites, sediment samples from 19 sites, and surface soil samples from 28 sites along the Huangshui stream and the Zaoshi reservoir around the Shimen Realgar Mine. A YSI6600V2 multi-parameter water quality analyzer was used to measure the water quality parameters, and combined inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometer (ICP-OES) and inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometer (ICP-MS) were used to detect the heavy metal concentration in the laboratory. The physical and chemical properties, heavy metal characteristics, and risk assessment of all samples we collected in the Shimen Realgar Mine in 2015 were obtained. This dataset includes: (1) geolocation of sampling sites of surface water, sediment, and soil samples; (2) the physical and chemical properties, including pH, water temperature, dissolved oxygen, total phosphorus, total nitrogen of surface water; (3)physical and chemical properties, including pH and organic matter of sediment and surface soil; (4) concentration of heavy metals (As, Cr, Cd, Pb, Zn, Ni, Mn, etc.) in surface water, sediment, and soil; (5) the assessment of heavy metal pollution levels in soil (indices of geo-accumulation, single-pollution, Nemerow Index, potential ecological risk). The dataset is archived in .kmz, .shp, and .xlsx data formats, and consists of 25 data files with data size of 122 KB (Compressed into one file with 98 KB). The analysis papers based on the dataset have been published in volumes 626 in 2018, and 726 in 2020 in Science of the Total Environment.
