【 摘 要 】

Geochemical analysis for Fe, Cu2+, Pb2+, Ni2+, Cd2+, Zn2+, Cr6+, Mn2+ and V2+ has been carried out on water samples collected from various location points in Aguobiri Community in Southern Ijaw Local Government Area of Bayelsa State. The analyses were done to determine the environmental status and suitability of the water in the area for drinking and domestic uses. Fifteen (15) water samples were collected from rivers, pond and boreholes located across the Aguobiri Community and analysed for heavy metals, bacteriological and physico-chemical parameters. The analytical results indicate the following ranges of concentrations for the heavy metals; Fe (0.01 – 0.68mg/l) Cu2+ (0.001 – 0.62mg/l) Pb2+ (
