TL;DR: This review presents an overview of literature published on the use of Pb isotopic analyses of different environmental matrices and summarises analytical techniques used for the determination of P b isotopes in environmental samples.

TL;DR: In this paper, chemical compositions of wines and soil extracts from six viticulture areas of the Czech Republic were examined using statistical multivariate analyses, including principal component analysis, factor and cluster analysis.

TL;DR: A coupled concentration/isotopic study of soil profiles showed that the smelter-induced pollution had penetrated even to the mineral soil horizons, indicating an important vertical mobility of Pb contaminant within the soil profile.

TL;DR: The results of the Tessier sequential extraction procedure showed the preferential binding of Pb in forest soils to operationally-defined exchangeable positions and soil organic matter (oxidisable fraction), which is thought to correspond to weak electrostatic binding on the functional groups of organic matter.

TL;DR: In this paper, three types of smelting slags originating from historically different smelters in the Tsumeb area (Namibia) were studied: (i) slags from processing of carbonate/oxide ore in a Cu-Pb smelter (1907-1948), (ii) sags from Cu and Pb smeltings of sulphide ores (1963-1970), and (iii) granulated Cu slags (1980-2000) were combined with detailed mineralogical investigation using X-ray diffraction analysis (X
