This study investigates the contamination and ecological risk of heavy metal concentrations in the residential area near the mining waste dump in Graçanica, a municipality in the Pristina District of Kosovo. Graçanica is located near the Kizhnica-Badovc-Hajvalia ore field and has historical significance in mining as part of the larger Trepça mining complex. The research employs a systematic approach to assess the levels of heavy metals in the soil and potential risks to the local population and environment. Through comprehensive soil sampling and analysis, the presence of heavy metals such as lead, zinc, and others is quantified. The results reveal elevated concentrations of these metals, reflecting a significant ecological risk to the surrounding community and ecosystem. Highlighting the urgency for pollution mitigation strategies, the study underscores the need for effective management of mining waste to protect human health and environmental integrity in Graçanica. This ongoing challenge necessitates close collaboration among mining sectors, governmental agencies, and environmental authorities to ensure sustainable practices and safeguard public health.
