1.0 INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this study was to characterize the lead and arsenic mineralogy within the El Paso community soils and more specifically the source(s) of the anomalously high (121-1143 mg/kg) lead and (14-192 mg/kg) arsenic concentrations found in the community. Samples were acquired from the ASARCO (1889-present) facility in El Paso, in addition to those collected by
WESTON from the surrounding community. Although the ASARCO facility was not the only smelter to operate in the El Paso community, it was the largest and had the greatest longevity.
The International Smelter operated from 1888-1894 and the Federal smelter operated from 1901-
1904. A site map, with sample locations and selected demographics is provided in Figure 1.
Environmental concerns pertaining to plant discharges began in the early 1920's with various private and city disputes concerning damages to crops and health from excessive smoke releases.
In the early 1970's more aggressive action by the city of El Paso and the state of Texas was undertaken to control air pollution from the facility. During these investigations it was concluded that the ASARCO smelter emitted approximately 1,000 tons of lead, 500 tons of zinc, 10 tons of cadmium and 1 ton of arsenic to the surrounding area over a three year period (People vs
ASARCO, 1971 and Carnow et al., 1973). As a direct result of this litigation ASARCO completed a $90 million dollar renovation to the facility in 1979 to improve emission quality.
However, as recently as 1990, data from the State of Texas indicate that 96 tons of lead per year
(from the ore and fluid beds) and 29 tons of arsenic per year (from the copper stack) are still being emitted from the facility. These modern, measured releases could only pale in comparison to historic releases during the facilities 100+ years of operation.

2.0 HISTORICAL and GEOLOGICAL BACKGROUND
History
The El Paso Smelter, was constructed in 1887 as the Consolidated Kansas City Smelting and
Refining Company. In 1899 it became part of the newly formed American Smelting and
Refining Company (ASARCO). It was originally built to process the rich, lead ores from the
West, but was later (1910) expanded by adding a copper circuit, primarily for Arizona ores.
Later in 1930's ~1950, and 1970's facilities were added for cadmium, zinc, and antimony, respectively.
The lead facility originally consisted of a 100 foot wooden stack and six blast furnaces with associated sintering ( 4 roasters ) capacity to handle some 225,000 tons of charge per year. After the 1902 fire, seven lead furnaces were constructed along with a new 400 foot stack. The lead plant was closed in 1985. (Hydrometrics, 2001)
The copper facility consisted of four Herreshoff roasters, one reverberatory furnace, and three
Peirce-Smith converters. Roaster and reverberatory gases are eliminated from a 828 foot stack and the converter gases discharge from a 100 foot stack. Baghouses and electrostatic precipitators (devices used to minimize stack emissions) were introduced to the facility in the early 1900's to limit the loss of metal from fumes. Annual production produced 110,000 tons of anode copper.
In the early 1930's a Godfrey roaster was added for cadmium production and in the 1970's an antimony plant was added.
In 1947 a zinc fuming facility, to treat slags, was added to handle the elevated concentrations of zinc ( up to 10 percent Zn) which were being produced when smelting the New Mexico ores.
The furnace treated 20,000 tons of slag per month. In early 1950's a new 600 foot stack was built to handle the lead and zinc facilities.
In the mid 1980's the antimony plants closed followed by a closing of the zinc and cadmium plants in 1992. The smelter still operates its copper (CONTOP) facility which was added in
1993. The plant has been on a mandatory three-year care and maintenance since 1999.
Geology:
El Paso lies the extreme western tip of Texas, within the southern part of the Basin and Range province. The south-east flowing Rio Grande River marks the southern limits of the city and the international boundary between the United States and Mexico. The climate is arid, with annual precipitation averaging only 9 inches. The prevailing winds are westerly, with dust storms a common occurrence in the early months of the year.
The metropolitan area of El Paso lies primarily within the floodplain of the Rio Grande River, once dominated by a large lake bed (Lake Cabeza de Vaca). Millions of years of river deposition resulted in a complex sedimentary sequence of gravel, silt, clay, and sand called the Fort
Hancock Formation, accumulating to a thickness of more than 9,000 feet. Recent geological activity has been dominated by Basin and Range tectonics and the emplacement of young, 40,000 year old, basalt flows and cinder cones from the Potrillo Volcanic field. There is nothing in the geological record that could account for the elevated metal (Pb, As, Cu, Cd, Zn) concentration found in the residential soils.
For decades, preceding the construction of dams on the Elephant Butte and Caballo lakes in
1916, spring flood waters would move onto the downtown area of El Paso.
3.0 LEAD and ARSENIC GEOCHEMISTRY
Arsenic is found in many minerals and is typically enriched in soils originating from shales/schists and argillaceous sediments. Lead on the other had is more commonly concentrated in silicic magmatic rocks and argillaceous sediments. Uncontaminated soils have mean concentrations of 1-6 mg/kg for arsenic and 3-19 for lead (Fergusson, 1990), worldwide.
The lowest levels are typically found in soils derived from volcanic or carbonate terrain, as are those in the El Paso area ( volcanics and limestones), and average 1-7 mg/kg As and 3-14 mg/kg
Pb. The arid climate in the El Paso area along with the near neutral (6-8.5 pH) acidity of the local soils stimulate very low metal mobility, generally concentrating metals in the surface horizons by preventing there downward distribution over time. Mobility may be enhanced by irrigation, aeration, or by utilization of soil amendments ( Logan and Chaney, 1983).
Numerous sources of lead and/or arsenic can produce elevated concentrations in surface soils.
Table 1 is a compilation of the most common sources, their speciation, along with associated soil concentrations (data from Barzi et al., 1996, Kabata and Pendias, 1993; Fergusson, 1990;
and Drexler, per. communication, 1998).

4.01 Methodology
Metal speciation was conducted on a JEOL 8600 electron microprobe (EMPA), operating at
15Kv (accelerating voltage) and 15-20 nanoAmps current, at the Laboratory for Geological
Studies at the University of Colorado following the laboratory’s SOP. For a complete description of the methodology a copy of the SOP is available at our website:
htpp://www.colorado.edu/GeolSci/legs
One exception was made in the SOP, in that the samples were not sieved to <250 Fm, as is most common for bioavailability determinations, but the 2mm fraction was used in order to be consistent with previous site studies. The samples were all air dried and prepared for speciation analysis as outlined in the SOP. A combination of both an Energy Dispersive Spectrometer
(EDS) and a Wavelength Dispersive Spectrometer (WDS) were used to collect x-ray spectra and determine elemental concentrations on observed mineral phases. All quantitative analyses are based on certified mineral and metal standards using a Phi Rho Z correction procedure.
Representative backscatter photomicrographs (BSPM) illustrating sample characteristics were acquired.
Data from EMPA will be summarized using three methods. The first method is the determination of FREQUENCY OF OCCURRENCE (F). This is calculated by summing the longest dimension of all the lead or arsenic-bearing phases observed during the point counting and then dividing each phase by the total length for all phases.
Equation 1.0 will serve as an example of how to calculate the frequency of occurrence for an arsenic- bearing compound, lead-bearing particles are handled in a similar manner.
FAs - Frequency of occurrence of arsenic in a single phase.
PLD - An individual particle’s longest dimension
3 (PLD) phase-1
FAs in phase-1 = ______________________________ Eq. 1.0
3 (PLD)phase-1 + 3 (PLD)phase-2 + 3 (PLD)phase-n
%FAs in phase-1 = FAs in phase-1 * 100
Thus, the frequency of occurrence of arsenic in each phase (FAs) is calculated by summing the longest dimension of all particles observed for that phase and then dividing each phase by the total of the longest dimensions for all phases. The data generated thus illustrate which arsenic-bearing phase(s) are the most commonly observed in the sample or relative volume percent.
The second calculation used in this report determines the RELATIVE MASS ARSENIC (RMAs) in a phase.
3 (MAs.) phase-1
RMAs in phase-1 = ______________________________ Eq. 2.0
3 (MAs. )phase-1 + 3 (MAs. )phase-2 + 3 (MAs. )phase-n
%RMAs in phase-1 = RMAs in phase-1 * 100
MAs - Mass of arsenic in a phase SG - Specific Gravity of a phase ppm As - Concentration in ppm of arsenic in phase (see Table A1.0, Appendix I)
MAs = FAs * SG * ppm As Eq. 2.0
The advantage in reviewing the RELATIVE MASS ARSENIC determinations is that it gives one information as to which metal-bearing phase(s) in a sample is likely to control the total bulk concentration for arsenic. As an example, PHASE-1 may, by relative volume, contribute 98% of the sample, however it has a low specific gravity and contains only 1000 ppm arsenic, whereas
PHASE-2 contribute 2% of the sample, has a high specific gravity and contains 850000 ppm of arsenic. In this example it is PHASE-2 that is the dominant source of arsenic to the sample.
The third calculation is to determine the MINERAL MASS ARSENIC (MinAs). In this calculation the RMAs is simply multiplied by the bulk concentration of arsenic found in the sample:
MinAs = RMAS * As Bulk Eq. 3.0
Where As Bulk is the bulk arsenic for the sample speciated. These values are most useful for geostatistical calculations, such as kriging, or apportionment since values are not forced to
100%.
4.02 Point Counting
Point counts (weighted on longest dimension) are made by traversing each sample from left-to-right and top-to-bottom. The amount of vertical movement for each traverse would depend on magnification and CRT (cathode-ray tube) size. This movement should be minimized so that NO portion of the sample is missed when the end of a traverse is reached. Two magnification settings should be used. One ranging from 40 to 100X and a second from 300 to 600X. The last setting will allow one to find the smallest identifiable (1-2 micron) phases. The portion of the sample examined in the second pass, under the higher magnification, will depend on the time available, the number of metal-bearing particles, and the complexity of metal mineralogy. A maximum of 8 hours will be spent per sample.
The point counting procedure in petrography is a well established technique as outlined by
Chayes, 1949. For our procedure we have simply substituted the electron microprobe for a simple petrographic microscope as a means of visually observing a particle and identifying its composition using the attached x-ray analyzers. The operator error (identification of phase and sizing) is generally negligible. However the particle counting error can be significant depending on the total number of particles counted and the fraction of an individual component (species) percent. Based on studies in El-Hinnawi, 1966, it was shown that the relative error of a point count based on 100 total particles versus one of 300 total particles is only 10% and 6% , respectively (for a species representing 30% of the count). It is our belief that this small decrease in error is not justified when cost and time of analysis are considered, and that it is much more beneficial to increase your total sample population and address representativeness.
4.03 Precision and Accuracy
The precision of the EMPA speciation will be evaluated based on sample duplicates analyzed at a frequency of 10% as selected by the laboratory, however the client may also submit “blind” duplicates for analyses. The precision of the data generated by the “EMPA point count” will be evaluated by calculating RPD values for all major (>20% frequency) phases, comparing the original result with the duplicate result. If the duplicate analyses are from samples that have produced at least 100 total particles it is expected that all (100%) of the dominant species
(representing 60% of frequency) be found in both, and that their individual frequency of occurrence not vary by more than 30%, relative. In the evaluation of the method precision it is most important to consider the variation in results among all samples studied for a particular media, since the overall particle count is very large Data generated by the “EMPA point count” will be further evaluated statistically based on the methods of Mosimann (1965) at the 95% confidence level on the frequency data following Equation 4.
E0.95 = 2P(100-P)/N (Eq. 4)
Where: E0.95 = Probable error at the 95% confidence level
P = Percentage of N of an individual metal-bearing phase based on percent length frequency
N = Total number of metal-bearing grains counted
Accuracy of quantitative metal analyses on non-stoichimetric metal phases is based on established EMPA procedures, and data reduction, Heinrich, 1981 and is generally 1-2% relative. All quantitative analyses will be performed using a series of certified mineral standards. In general, site-specific concentrations for these variable, metal-bearing forms will be determined by performing “peak counts” on the appropriate wavelength spectrometer. Average concentrations will then be used for further calculations. Data on specific gravity will be collected from referenced databases or estimated based on similar compounds.
Plant-site Samples
During the 116 year operational history of the ASARCO facility, numerous sources for heavy-metal emissions existed, including:
Roasters, blast furnaces
Storage piles
Plant road dust
Loading/unloading facilities
Baghouses/dust collectors
Few of these sources are available today for direct sampling, therefore, plant-site samples were limited. In terms of the historical speciation of lead and arsenic at the plant, these samples are most certainly incomplete. Thus these samples provide only a partial “source fingerprint”.
Approximately 2100 particles containing either lead or arsenic were counted in the six soil samples from the ASARCO plant, Table 3. These samples can be generally characterized as representing three distinct media at the site; 1) a slag-rich (ELP 26,27) 2) a copper circuit (ELP
25) and 3) general plant soil (ELP 28,29). As a whole, plant samples studied to date have lead masses dominated (78% of the relative lead mass) by the following lead-bearing phases: PbS, PbMSO4, CuMSO4, CrMSO4, PbAsO, and PbO Figure 2, Photos 1-3. The most common metals
“M” are As, Sb or Cd. Arsenic masses dominated (85% of the relative arsenic mass) by the following arsenic-bearing phases: CuMSO4, CuM, PbAsO, and PbMSO4 Figure 2, Photos 1-3.
The most common metals “M” are Pb or Sb. These primary phases are consistent with the facilities operations.
Particle size of lead and arsenic phases are trimodal in their distribution with populations at 2,10 and 100 microns, Figure 3. The 2 micron population is dominated by PbS, the 10 micron by
CuMSO4, and the coarser, 100+ micron population by slag.
Each of the plant samples show unique lead and arsenic speciation and the site summary, Figure
2, is dominated by a large number of CuM and CuMSO4 particles that are only found in two of the samples. If one would exclude those two samples, the dominant species of lead would be
PbS, PbO, PbMSO4, and PbAsO while arsenic would be primarily found in PbAsO, PbMSO4, and sulfosalts species.

Community Soils
Community soil sample set (Figure 1) includes soils with varied bulk lead and arsenic concentrations 46-1785 mg/kg, and 4-186 mg/kg, respectively. From these samples over 2400 lead and or arsenic bearing particles were counted, Table 4. These data indicate that slag, iron oxide and phosphate are the most commonly found lead/arsenic-bearing phases in the residential soils. However, lead masses almost exclusively (84% of the relative lead mass) are dominated by phosphate, PbS, PbAsO, PbMO, PbCO3, PbMSO4, and PbSO4, with minor contributions from other lead forms, Figure 4. Five of these six dominant forms of lead are consistent with those found at the ASARCO facility and three of the five forms could only be associated with a pyrometalurgical facility. Arsenic masses almost exclusively (85% of the relative arsenic mass) dominated by arsenopyrite, PbAsO, AsMO, PbMSO4 and phosphate, Figure 4, Photos 4-11.
Again, three of the four dominant forms of arsenic in community soils are consistent with
ASARCO facility speciation results and two of the three could only be associated with a pyrometalurgical facility. Approximately 62% of the residential yards had apportionable lead paint, however, only 12% of those yards had paint as a dominant lead phase. No evidence morphological, demographical, or mineralogical could be established to support lead or arsenic contributions from either pesticides or herbicides.
The particle- size distribution for all lead and arsenic species is bimodal, at approximately 2 and
40 microns, Figure 5. The 2 micron size population is not dominated by a particular phase, however, the coarser (40 micron) population is composed in general of liberated, slag grains.

Statistical Study–Correlation Analysis
A matrix was constructed using twenty-six variables and 26 cases (soil samples) and twenty-six variables and 6 cases (plant samples) to conduct a correlation analysis using STATISTICA. The variables included data from the El Paso speciation study (MinPb), and bulk metals concentrations.
Based on these data a correlation matrix was computed for each group.
Correlations within the residential samples can be used for apportionment calculations. These correlations are often valuable in assigning source(s) to “non-specific” phases and phases that can be common to multiple sources. However, one must remember that a correlation does not necessarily indicate an association! Other statistical techniques can be applied to the data and may offer further insight. The most significant correlations between variable pairs have been marked in bold in Tables 5- 6. Many of these correlations support the categories established later in
Chapter 6.
For plant soils, correlation coefficients suggest; 1) bulk lead and arsenic concentrations at the plant are dominated by emission products and 2) all of the pyrometalurgical phases (except slag) proposed in Chapter 6 show a strong correlation and 3) all concentrate phases (except anglesite) proposed in Chapter 6 show a strong correlation.
For community soils a number of observations that one can make from the data, which may be important to this study, are; 1) that bulk lead and arsenic do not correlate highly (r> 0.80, p<0.05) with any particular phase 2) bulk cadmium however does correlate well with all emission products 3) concentrate phases, other than pyrite and sulfosalts are poorly correlated to other factors 4) the total lack of a correlation between paint and any other phase, particularly anglesite, cerussite or lead oxide, or bulk metal concentration 5) “solder” may be miss-identified as an anthropogenic phase, and may be a by product from the facility and 6) most (9 out of 12) of the proposed pyrometalurgical phases show good inter-phase correlation.
