The aim of the study was the analysis of soil contamination in the area in vicinity of metalworking plants located in the district Opole-Metalchem (PL). Pb-210 was used as pollution indicator because its increased concentration of activity may indicate the presence of other contaminants in the studied area. On the base of the obtained results, the activity concentration of the excessive lead was calculated. Its biggest value was observed in soil in a forest area. In areas with increased excessive lead content also elevated values of Cs-137 activity concentrations were recorded. Atmospheric source of Pbex and Cs-137 deposition was supposed.

Celem badań była analiza zanieczyszczenia gleby w rejonie zakładów metalurgicznych w dzielnicy Opole-Metalchem. Jako wskaźnika użyto Pb-210, ponieważ podwyższona jego aktywność może wskazywać na obecność innych zanieczyszczeń na badanym terenie. Na podstawie uzyskanych wyników obliczono aktywność ołowiu nadmiarowego. Największe jego aktywności zaobserwowano w glebie na terenie leśnym. W miejscach z podwyższoną aktywnością ołowiu nadmiarowego odnotowano także wyższe wartości aktywności Cs-137.
