The heavy metals, as a few of the inorganic compounds have strong adsorption properties. Suspended matter, which is an essential component of surface waters, plays an important role in the transport of metal pollutants. However, insoluble substances which occur as colloids suspended or adsorbed on the solid phase under the influence of variable physical and chemical conditions might dissolve and become a source of secondary pollution of the surface waters and a danger for the organisms. Therefore it is necessary to mark various metal forms present in each of the elements of the water ecosystem. A research concerning the role of suspended matters in transporting heavy metals has been carried out on the Bobrza River in 3 different measurement points. Those points differ in the management of the land: the source, Białogon - acidic environment, and Sitkówka - Nowiny - alkaline environment. The results received indicate the relationships between the area management and the degree of bounding the metals by suspended matters.
