25 Januari 2018/Diterima: 11 Julai 2018 ABSTRACT Instead of its economic impact,
tin mining activities cause environmental problems. The tin occurrence
which is related to tin-bearing alteration on S-type Muncung Granite
and its mining history in Singkep Island describes in this study.
This work assessed the heavy metals concentration in six tin tailings
and two soils from Singkep using inductively coupled plasma -
mass spectrometry in correlation to environmental hazard. Both
primary and placer mining methods applied in tin excavations on
the studied area. Concentration tendency of heavy metals in the
six studied tailings samples is generally Cr>Pb>As>Ba≈V.
The identical heavy metals trend represented by the three samples
from Bukit Tumang might reflect a similar primary tailings character.
On the other hand, anthropogenic activities and different surrounding
rocks caused the dissimilarity of heavy metals pattern on placer
wastes. Higher environmental problems are detected on the primary
wastes than the placer one, especially arsenic and chrome. Severe
arsenic pollution degree is also indicated in the soil sample
just outside the mining location at Betong Village. Conservation
and amelioration programs are useful in improving the environmental
condition on studied locations. Keywords: Heavy metals; pollution
index; S-type granite; tin tailings ABSTRAK Aktiviti perlombongan bijih
timah lebih menyumbang kepada masalah alam sekitar berbanding
memberi kesan kepada ekonomi. Berlakunya timah yang berkaitan
dengan bijih timah-galas pindaan ke atas S-jenis Muncung granit
dan sejarahnya perlombongan di Pulau Singkep diterangkan dalam
kajian ini. Kajian ini menilai kepekatan logam berat dalam enam
lombong bijih timah dan dua tanah dari Singkep menggunakan plasma
induktif berganding - spektrometri jisim yang berkolerasi kepada
membahayakan alam sekitar. Kaedah perlombongan utama dan plaser
digunakan dalam penggalian bijih timah di kawasan yang dikaji.
Kecenderungan kepekatan logam berat dalam enam sampel lombong
yang dikaji secara umumnya adalah Cr>Pb>As>Ba≈V.
Trend logam berat yang diwakili oleh tiga sampel dari Bukit Tumang
mungkin mencerminkan watak utama lombong yang sama. Selain itu,
aktiviti antropogenik dan batu sekeliling yang berbeza telah menyebabkan
ketidakserupaan pola logam berat pada sisa plaser. Masalah persekitaran
yang tinggi terutamanya pencemaran arsenik dan kromium dikesan
di dalam sisa utama daripada plaser satu. Tahap pencemaran arsenik
yang tinggi juga dikesan di dalam sampel tanah di luar lokasi
perlombongan di Kampung Betong. Program pemuliharaan dan ameliorasi
penting dalam memperbaiki keadaan alam sekitar di lokasi yang
telah dikaji. Kata kunci: Granit jenis-s; indeks pencemaran; logam berat; lombong
