Abstract

The physicochemical study in water of the springs of Ichuña, Moquegua, Peru had as objective to know the quality of water by the direct use and supply of the population, in agriculture and livestock, this town has mineral resources such as; Gold, copper and silver, which are extracted by mining industries at the head of the basin also for their stratigraphic characteristic constituted by: the Yura, Puno, Tacaza and Barroso Group which have volcanic conglomerate and crust of tectonic origin. This activity offers economic benefits, environmental and public health problems arising from the direct and indirect impact of these activities. It was determined the concentration of heavy metals (Pb, As, B and Cd) in the springs of; Mauri, Humalzo, Totorani. Using thee National Water Resources Quality Monitoring Protocol (R. J. 010-2016-ANA) and Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS). The following results were obtained; in Mauri: Arsenic 0.08 mg / L, in Humalzo and Mauri: Boron 2.42 mg / L and 0.857mg / L, in Mauri and Humalzo: Lead 0.02 mg / L and 0.017 mg / L and in Mauri, Humalzo and Totorani: <0.003 mg / L. The average pH is 8.0 and the heavy metals are; Arsenic, Boron and Lead in water from Ichuña springs over the Water Quality Standards of Peru and Cadmium are very low.
