Pot-experiments were carried out to study heavy metal accumulation in Chinese cabbage planted in the polluted soil from the indigenous zinc smelting area of Hezhang County.

The reclamation of the abandoned land is one of important ways to reduce the erosion of soil and control heavy metal pollution in the indigenous zinc smelting area.

We studied on the heavy metal of the soil in the indigenous zinc smelting area of Hezhang County in Guizhou province with experiment in the field, the nursery and the laboratory.

The pollution situation of heavy metal of soil and plant were determined and evaluated,based on overall investigation of Pb-Zn mining area\'s soil and plant(vegetable and crop etc.

Soil heavy metal accumulation induced by local smelting and its microbial environmental effects in Hezhang County, Guizhou Province;

Local zinc smelting with indigenous method in Hezhang County, Guizhou Province, not only caused infertile vegetation, but also induced varying-degree accumulation of heavy metals in adjacent soils and stream sediments.

Recently, local zinc smelting with indigenous methods in Guizhou province become more and more serious because of higher Zn prices.

Indigenous zinc smelting activity, widely spread in western Guizhou, China, had caused serious pollution of heavy metals and ecological destruction in the indigenous zinc smelting areas.
