2. Contamination of soil may be indirectly responsible for the greatest human exposures to heavy metals through uptake of plants to these metals. If heavy metal contamination exceeds the binding capability of the soil, there is a danger that heavy metal compounds can percolate into the groundwater

3. Cd used in metal plating, pigments, batteries, and plastics. Igneous rocks (0.1-0.3 mg/Kg) Metamorphic ~.3 &Sedimentary rocks 0.3-11g/kg ZnS minerals, ZnCO3 Up to 5% Fertilizers in cultivated soils

4. Health risk (direct exposure specially children e.g Pb in paint and playground. Plant grown in contaminated soil can accumulate a lethal dosage when consumed by human. Heavy metals can percolate into the groundwater. Soil contaminated with heavy metal need many years for remediation and clean up

5. Siet (1): ALmota. Is industrial waste, home garbage and auto wrecks. This site used by Buriedah city as a landfill from early 1950s until late 1970s. The land surrounding this site is a semi- rural, residential and faming field.

6. Siet (2): ALdahy The site used to disposal excess rain from the Buriedah city streets and overflow of municipal water. This site used as a landfill from early late 1960s to late 1970s. The land surrounding this site is residential community.

7. Siet (3): ALsnaeeah This site is being used to infiltrate and evaporate industrial solid and liquid wastes since late 1970 until now. -It surrounded by mainly factories and a farming fields.

12. To survey soil contamination by heavy metals in AL-Qassin area. To determine relative mobility of heavy metals in soil profile. To evaluate heavy metals uptake by native plants.

13. Surface and subsurface soil samples were collected from three different sites. Soils in the three sites classified as Coarse sandy, thermic Typic Torrifluvent. These soils represent most of the major agric. soils in AL-Qassim reigmn,Saudi Arabia.

42. 1) The complexation model prediction values for the% of adsorbed Cd are within 5% of the batch data at the pH 8 2) Soils have high contents of O.M & hydrous ferric oxides showed relatively good agreements with the batch data. 3) The Humic materials are important in Cd retentionat pH>3 & HFO surfaces at pH>7. 3)

43. 4) The relationship between Cd activity and soil pH was highly significant 5) Small change in pH can cause a dramatic change in the adsorption capacity of the soil specially at pH below 6. 6). The correlation between SAC Cd2+ and soil properties suggests that soil adsorption capacity for Cd would increase with increasing Iron Fraction and O.M in 7) The Rcd values increased with increasing amounts of the iron oxide fractions.
