Resumo
The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of mining activity on elemental concentrations in kale grown around a mining area. Two
sites studied are in the Iron Quadrangle, Minas Gerais, Brazil, considered one of the richest mineral-bearing regions in the world. One site is near
mineral exploration activity and the other is an ecological area. A comparator site outside the Iron Quadrangle was also analyzed. This work
focused on the determination of the elemental concentrations in kale applying the k0-instrumental neutron activation analysis. As the Brazilian
legislation specifies values for soil only, the results for kale were compared to the literature values and it was found that the vegetable does not
present any health risks.
