Abstract

The city Sv. Nikole as a basic resource for water-supplying is using the “Mavrovica” hydroaccumulation. There is a very serious question asserted about the quality of water, actually the possibility for chemical or other kind of pollution. The researches from geological-chemistry and ecological aspect are showing the potential possibilities for anthropogenic contamination of the bio-environments (water, soil and sediments) in the area. More examinations whereas the presence of the heavy metals in the water and the sediments from the Mavrovica hydroaccumulation are not made jet. For determining the contest of the heavy metals in the slime-sediments from the above mentioned accumulation, there are samples taken from the sediments and there are concentrations of the following group of elements traced: Mn, Fe, Al, Zn, Pb, Ni, Cd, Cu, Cr, Ag, As and Co.
The results gained are showing increased concentrations in the sediments of all of the analyzed elements.
