Table 1:

Levels of contaminants of concern in soil, in Rosia Montana (RM) area, and Romanian regulatory exposure levels for metals in residential soil (mg/kg or ppm) – alert thresholds (AT) and intervention thresholds (IT) for residential soil.

	COCs	As	Cd	Cr (total)	Hg	Ni	Pb
Soil	Mine Pit (n=7)	114.4±17.7	<8^a	22.1±3	-	39	104.4±106.3
Soil	Residential (n=84)	85±51	3.2±5.9	41±43	2.3±2.8	20±19	92±51
Romanian Regulatory Exposure Levels for metals (residential soil) - AT / IT		*15/25*	*3/5*	*100/300*	*1/2*	*75/150*	*50/100*

Contaminants of concern concentrations (COCs) in mg/kg (ppm) for soil (average ± SD).
