In soils of different areas of Quetta city, irrigated by sewage water, the highest concentration of heavy metals was found to be as follows lead [1.38 ppm], copper [0.86 ppm], chromium [0.036 ppm], cadmium [0.29 ppm], iron [10.50 ppm], nickel [0.74 ppm], zinc [19.45 ppm] and arsenic [0.001 ppm] on average basis. The sewage water contained lead [53.26 ppb], copper [22.5 ppb], chromium [1.33 ppb], cadmium [0.53 ppb], iron [127.7 ppb], nickel [51.14 ppb], manganese [17.08 ppb], zinc [31.38 ppb] and arsenic [0.011 ppb].
