Abstract

This project intend to conduct a study to establishment of natural geochemical background values in one hydrographic basin in the State of São Paulo. In this basin, will be made a low-density geochemical survey based on the geochemical analysis of the rocks, sediments and soils samples. The analytical data obtained, together with previously existing geochemical data, will be used to establish an overall preliminary geochemical picture of the state of São Paulo in the proposed project "ESTABLISHMENT OF NATURAL GEOCHEMICAL BACKGROUND VALUES IN THE STATE OF SÃO PAULO - phase 1 "(FAPESP 2010/10792-3).
