Evaluation of heavy metal content of salts between Esk?k??la and Ocakba?? (K?r?kkale) villages

Salt, which is the main nutrient, a very important raw material in life of living organisms and industry. Salt production consumption have improved increased due to technological developments industrialization. has been used world our country since ancient times. It many fields, especially chemical industry, metallurgy, textile, medicine, agriculture. In addition sea, lake spring salts, Turkey rich rock salt reserves. The Neogene aged Çank?r?-Çorum Basin one basins where evaporitic formations are observed Central Anatolia region. Chemical analyses were carried out determine amount heavy metal samples taken from Oligocene units area between Ocaba?? Eskik??la springs (Delice) basin. SEM-EDX, XRF ICP-OES devices geochemical properties quantities elements. According results XRF, Na % ( 33.70-38.30), Cl %(52.10 - 57.70) SO3 %(0.75-1.93), Al2O3 %(0.90-1.93), CaO %(0.58-2.69), MgO %(0.40-1.41) Fe2O3 (0.18-0.64), SiO2 %(1.75-4.95), SrO, (<0.010), BaO Cr2O3 %(<0.010), K2O %(0.008-0.25), MnO %(<0.010) found. determination metals made with ICP-OES, it was determined that (Hg, As, Pb, Cd) published Turkish food codex communiqué below limit values.
