The paper presents the maps of the spatial distribution of Co, Fe, Cr, As, Zn in anthropogenic car- bonates of the Pavlodar region. Abnormal concentrations of heavy metals in scale explained complex influence of natural (development of intrusions of the main, ultrabasic composition, location of field) and technogenic factors (ferroalloy plant, petrochemical, chemical plant).
Keywords: carbonates, elements, Pavlodar region, drinking water.
