Cadmium (Cd) concentration was investigated in parent rocks, surrounding soil of black shales outcrop, stream water, stream sediments, paddy soil as well as rice plants. Leaching test and sequential extraction procedure were applied to evaluate Cd mobility and bioavailability in soil samples. This study aims to emphasize ecological risk of Cd induced by black shales by combining various natural medias in black shales area and control area. The black shales parent rocks have elevated Cd concentration and act as a source of Cd. The liberated Cd from black shales outcrop temporarily accumulated in the acidized surrounding soil and could arise potential adverse impacts on environment due to rainfall. Although high concentration of Cd was not detected in stream water, Cd concentrated stream sediment was a hidden toxin for surface water system. Cd in paddy soil was primarily from geogenic source and effected little by anthropogenic source. The concentration as well as mobility and bioavailability of Cd were high in paddy soil in black shales area, which lead to elevated Cd concentration in roots, shoots and grains of rice. As a result, residents in black shales area suffer increased non-carcinogenic risk of Cd via food chain.
