Abstract
Groundwater in the semiarid Rioverde basin in the nothern part of Mexico was investigated with respect to major and minor elements including arsenic as well as As(III) and As(V). The total arsenic concentrations varied from less than 5 to 50 mg/L. The in situ arsenic determination method produced reliable results with deviations from -5.6 to 2.2 mg/L compared to laboratory HGAAS. Since arsenic and barium were found to be inversely correlated precipitation of bariumarsenate was suspected to control arsenic solubility. Thermodynamically modeling by means of PHREEQC proved that BaHAsSO4×H2O (not BaAsSO4) might be a limiting phase, however only at higher concentrations than those determined in this study. Increased arsenic groundwater concentrations were found with lacustrine and decreased concentrations with fluvial Quarternary sediments. Increased total arsenic concentrations correlate with increased As(III) concentrations in the groundwater of the lacustrine sediments.
