Lead in Soil of Historical Property


Soil samples collected from key locations from the grounds of a 200 year old building in New England illustrate expected variations in Lead (Pb) content. A DELTA analyzer configured in SmartShot Soil analysis mode was used to analyze the samples. Spectral data is shown using the DELTA PC Software.

Soil Data

 

A reference sample spiked with approximately 500ppm Pb (sample 408) was used for these repeat readings.

Each reading was analyzed for 60 seconds.

+/- error shown is 2-sigma, 95% confidence.
