Water samples collected from different
areas of district Pishin were analyzed for
presence of heavy metal contents. The
presence of heavy metals such as arsenic
(As), antimony (Sb), aluminum (Al), and
Lead (pb) were analyzed for their presence
and compared with different parameters
such as depth of tube well, age of tube
well, location of tube well, sample pH,
sample conductivity, population burden,
use of insecticides, pesticides and
fertilizers. Arsenic and lead Were present
in all samples collected from areas of
heavy population but on average its
concentration was lower than standard
recommended values which depicts that
population has positive impact on presence
of heavy metals.The study findings shows
that the depth of tube wells have positive
