Some heavy metals (Co, Cu, Mo, Ni, Pb, V and Zn) were determined in water, sediments and some fish species (Cyprinion macrostomus and Garra rufa) from the Tigris River. Mo and V were not detected in water and Co, Cu, Ni, Pb, Zn were found low values. Co, Cu, Ni, Pb, V and Zn were found very high levels in the sediments. All the fish samples contain high concentrations of Cu, Ni and Zn, while Co, Mo, Pb and V were not detected. The high concentrations of heavy metals may be directly related to the contamination of the Tigris River by Ergani Copper Plant and the geochemical structure of this region.
对底格里斯河的水、沉积物以及一些鱼类物种（大口鲤和红尾鱼）中的某些重金属（钴、铜、钼、镍、铅、钒和锌）进行了测定。水中未检测到钼和钒，钴、铜、镍、铅、锌的含量较低。沉积物中钴、铜、镍、铅、钒和锌的含量非常高。所有鱼类样本中铜、镍和锌的浓度都很高，而未检测到钴、钼、铅和钒。重金属的高浓度可能与埃尔加尼铜厂对底格里斯河的污染以及该地区的地球化学结构直接相关。
