Abstract
The water which seeks out from various Sutunga coalmines of East Jaintia Hills of Meghalaya were analysed. The water samples obtained from 7 different strategically selected sites. The pH of water of all sites varies from 1-3 which indicates it is highly acidic. The TDC and conductivity is also very high (TDC-480 to 190mg/L, conductivity - 800 to 300μ/cm). The heavy metals detected were Ca, Mg, Se, Pb, Fe, Ni, Cu, Mn, Co, Zn & Se. Use of this water (for drinking & domestic) by the mine workers and people of adjoining village is thus unsuitable & unsafe.
