- •
Assessed metal contamination in the SBM3 marine sediments of Mina Al Fahal, Oman.
- •
Examined heavy metal concentration levels of Cd, Cu, Pb and V.
- •
Mean concentration in the sediments, from highest to lowest, is V > Cu > Pb > Cd.
- •
Highest concentration of V due to waste discharges from nearby heavy tanker traffic.
- •
ICP-OES found low concentrations of all four heavy metals; SMB3 region in good quality.
