옥천대의 흑색셰일 및 점판암이 존재하는 덕평-추부 지역의 암석-토양-작물계에서의 As의 부화정도, 분산양상, 환경지구화학적 관점에서 판단되는 잠재적 위해도의 평가를 위하여 암석, 토양 및 농작물시료를 채취하여 INAA, ICP-AES, ICP-MS를 이용하여 As을 포함한 잠재적 특성원소의 화학분석을 수행하였다. 암석분석의 결과 덕평 및 추부지역의 흑색셰일에서 As의 평균 함량은 각각 23 mg/kg, 57 mg/kg 로 전 세계 계일 및 흑색셰일의 평균값보다 부화된 값을 나타하였다. 이외에도 Ba, Cr, Mn, Mo, Ni, Se, U 및 V가 매우 부화된 양상을 보였다. 흑색셰일로부터 유래된 토양중의 As는 덕평지역의 밭토양은 28 mg/kg, 추부지역의 밭토양과 논토양은 33 mg/kg와 23 mg/kg로 농작물에 독성을 줄 수 있는 토양중의 잠재적 독성원소들의 최대 허용한계치(tolerable level) 보다도 부화된 값을 나타냈다. 토양시료들에 대한 As의 함량과 Mo, Se, U, Cu, Sb, Tl 간에는 비교적 좋은 양의 상관관계를 보였다 흑색 셰일 기반암 지역의 토양에서 재배된 농작물 시료에 대한 화학분석 결과, 벼의 줄기와 잎에 As의 축적이 매우 커서 덕평과 추부지역에서 각각 1.14 mg/kg와 1.35 mg/kg의 함량을 보인다. 토양내의 원소 함량과 작물 내로의 흡수정도인 생물학적 흡수계수(BAC, biological absorption coefficient)의 산출결과, As는 벼줄기와 잎>옥수수 잎>고추>콩잎=깻잎>옥수수 줄기>옥수수 열매의 순으로 감소하였으며, As가 열매와 같은 cereal products보다 잎과 식물에 토양으로부터 더 많은 양이 농축된다는 것을 추론학 수 있다.

The purpose of this research is to investigate the enrichment and distribution patterns of naturally occurring potentially toxic elements in soils derived from black shales and slates. Soil samples were collected from the Chubu area covered with uranium-enriched black shales and slates of the Changri Formation of the Okchon Super Group, and analysed for multiple-elements using INAA, ICP-AES and AAS. Soil pH and loss-an-ignition were also measured. Trace element contents in black shale and slate of the Chubu area are relatively lower than those in black shales, and higher than those in black slates reported elsewhere (Chon, Jung, 1991; Chon et al., 1996). Soil pH values range from 3.5 to 6.5, and loss-an-ignition values are in the range from 3 to 10%. Potentially toxic elements including As, Ba, Cr, Cu, Mo and U are highly enriched in residual soils with maximum content of $540{\mu}g/g$, $35,000{\mu}g/g$, $280{\mu}g/g$, $300{\mu}g/g$, $240{\mu}g/g$ and $860{\mu}g/g$, respectively. Significant concentrations of those elements were found in soils taken from the Tojangkol, the Chubu tunnel and the Meokti areas. Soils derived from black shales and slates, calcareous and phyllitic rocks, and intrusions were discriminated in terms of As, Ba, Co, Cr, Cu, Mo, Sc and U contents. Enrichment index was calculated using the concentrations of As, Ba, Cr and Mo, and enrichment index map shows very similar trend with U distribution in soils.

This study had three purposes: (1) to investigate the enrichment levels and dispersion patterns of potentially toxic elements in the rock-soil-plant system; (2) to evaluate the uptake ratios of heavy metals from soils into plants and (3) to assess the chemical speciation of heavy metals in soils. Rock, surface soil and plant samples were collected in the Boeun area underlain by black shales of the Okchon Zone. These samples were analyzed for multi-elements using INAA, ICP-AES and AAS. The maximum abundance of U in black shales is 16 mg/kg and radioactivity counts up to 300 cpm. In particular, Mo, V, Ba, Cd, Pb and U are enriched in black shales. Most of soils derived from black shales show high concentrations of U, As, Mo, Ba, Cu, Cd, Pb, Zn and mean concentrations of As and Mo in soils (20 mg/kg of As and 6.6 mg/kg of Mo) are higher than the permissible level suggested by Kloke (1979). Enrichment index values of soils are calculated and higher than 1.0 in the black shale area with the highest value of 6.4. Mean concentration of Cd in plants is higher than those of Cu, Pb and Zn. The concentration of Cd in plant species decreases in the order of Chinese cabbage > red pepper > soybean=sesame > rice stalk > com > rice grain. The biological absorption coefficients (BAC) in plants are in the order of Cd > Zn=Cu > Pb, which suggests that Cd is more bioavailable to plants than Cu, Pb and Zn. From the results of sequential extraction analysis of soils, relatively high proportion of Cu, Pb and Zn are present as residual fractions whereas that of Cd as non-residual fractions. Cadmuim occurs predominantly as exchangeable/water-acid soluble phase in soils, and Cd is more mobile and bioavailable than Cu, Pb and Zn.
