The presence of contaminated sites/soils in or near cities can pose significant risks to public health. The city of Viviez (France) was taken in reference site bears significant industrial responsibility, particularly in zinc metallurgy, with the presence of a now rehabilitated smelter. This has led to soil contamination by zinc (Zn), lead (Pb), arsenic (As), and cadmium (Cd), with concentrations reaching up to 4856 mg kg, 1739 mg kg, 195 mg kg, and 110 mg kg, respectively.

Anthropogenic activities such as industrial, mining, or agricultural are the main sources of environmental contamination. One of the most problematic contaminations concerns metals and metalloids from mining activities. This contamination raises the question of the environmental risk induced and the spread of this pollution (geographical and trophic) and the associated health risk.

Article Synopsis
  • Air pollution significantly affects the environment and human health; this study focuses on air particles from a mining area in Cartagena-La Unión, Spain, to assess their health risks.
  • Four monitoring sites were chosen: a mining tailing, an urban area, an agricultural zone, and a coastal site, revealing varying particle sizes and mineral compositions, with high levels of harmful metals like Zn, Pb, and As in polluted areas.
  • Risk assessments highlighted that while total metal content indicated unacceptable cancer and hazard risks at the mining tailing, considering bioaccessible metal fractions resulted in more acceptable risk levels, indicating potential overestimation when using total content alone.
