The purpose of this study was to compare heavy metal concentrations in uncontaminated soil with those in soil influenced by industrial activities, and to investigate the relationship between change of heavy metal content and the kind of industry at the Iksan 2nd Industrial Complex that has started since 1995. Soils sampled in 0-3 cm and 3-6 cm soil depth, respectively were analized for content of Cd, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn. The content of Cd in soil layer of 0 to 3 cm was 0.07-4.37ppm range, average concentration was 0.516ppm and 3-6 cm was 0.07-8.52ppm range, average concentration was 0.380ppm. Area of the chemicals, dyes and metal products manufacturing were higher than the other manufacturing area in Industrial Complex. The content of Cu in soil layer of 0 to 3 cm was 0.61-42.62ppm range, average concentration was 11.087ppm and 3-6 cm was 0.16-35.45ppm range, average concentration was 7.578ppm. Area of the metal products manufacturing were higher than the other manufacturing area in Industrial Complex. The content of Ni in soil layer of 0 to 3 cm was 0.19-15.93ppm range, average concentration was 5.525ppm and 3-6 cm was 0.39-15.59ppm range, average concentration was 5.310ppm. Area of the metal and chemical products manufacturing were higher than the other manufacturing area in Industrial Complex. The content of Pb in soil layer of 0 to 3 cm was 3.10-55.75ppm range, average concentration was 23.543ppm and 3-6 cm was 3.35-46.55ppm range, average concentration was 19.198ppm. Area of the chemicals and metal products manufacturing were higher than the other manufacturing area in Industrial Complex. The content of Zn in soil layer of 0 to 3 cm was 26.50-943.00ppm range, average concentration was 158.329ppm and 3-6 cm was 35.45-882.45ppm range, average concentration was 127.914ppm. Area of the chemicals and metal products manufacturing were higher than the other manufacturing area in Industrial Complex. As the result, this study was to compare Cd, Cu, Ni, Pb, Zn average concentration in uncontaminated soil of world with those in soil, that Cu, Ni were uncontaminated concentration level, Cd was somewhat higher compare with the concentration level of world, Pb and Zn were very higher. Soil contaminated degree of Iksan 2nd Industrial Complex was known a difference by type of industrial activities(chemical, dyes and metal of products)
