Abstract
⺠Eight urban soil and two mine tailing samples were analyzed by INAA and 33 elements were determined. ⺠Concentrations of As, Ba, Cr, Fe, Mn, and Zn are higher than the heavily polluted EPA guideline values. ⺠Concentrations for Ba, Cr, Ni, and Ta, are lower than México Guideline values, but As and V are higher. ⺠The differences in the elemental concentrations between guidelines of US EPA and México are large. ⺠Urban soils are polluted with As, Ba, Cr, Fe, Mn, and Zn in all the eight urban soil samples.
