Abstract

The article presents the results of a comprehensive study of a long-term, localized geochemical anomaly identified near Site No. 1 “Cement Production” of LLP Production Company Semey Cement Plant. The research focuses on assessing the level and distribution of chemical element contamination, particularly heavy metals, in the upper soil horizon. Analytical methods, including mass spectrometry and atomic emission spectrometry, were applied to determine element concentrations. The obtained data were compared with regional background values and literature sources to evaluate the degree of technogenic impact and potential environmental risks associated with cement production activities.
