Abstract

In recent decades a series of sampling theories have been developed and verified for the quality assurance process in the primary material industries by numerous extensive investigations. The results have essentially influenced the standards and regulations. In the case of sampling and analysis of contaminated soils nothing equivalent has been done (Neeßf et al., 1997; Dück et al., 1999). In many cases the concentrations of contaminants are lower than those encountered in raw materials, and therefore the sampling of contaminated soils must be done with more care.
