Abstract:Arsenic content in geological environment in Shandong province is generally as follows(10-6): all kinds of rocks are 4.87~7.89, soil is 10.89, and bed mud is 6.23. According to distribution characteristics of arsenic, Shandong can be divided into 2 large geological environemnt areas with arsenic in middle and south part of Shandong—mountain and breck area in eastern Shandong and 7 subareas. In each subarea, arsenic has a low geochemical background, while in plain area, arsenic has a high background. In general, there is a normal or rather low background in Shandong province, and examples have not been found in Shandong at present which will harm human beings′s health due to high arsenic background. Thus, in order to prevent human beings from the harm of high arsenic, it is very important to strengthen geochemical suvey and study of arsenic and protect geological environment.
