Resumo
Water is an indispensable molecule for the existence of life, thus several studies
analyze both their chemical composition and biological and radiological. There is a
greater concern about mineral waters, since they tend to be consumed even as a
therapeutic form, originating the study of crenotherapy. Currently there are several
analytical techniques for the determination of elements in water and one that can be
used is the neutron activation analysis, which consists of a technique that forms radioactive
isotopes by means of reactions that occur in the nucleus of the atoms, thus
allowing simultaneous determination of various chemical element concentrations. In
addition to being a sensitive and reliable method, it is free of sample destruction. The
method can be used either in samples in their solid or liquid form. The mineral water,
according to Decree Law No. 7.841 of 08.08.1945 is defined as: "Mineral waters are
those from natural or artificially collected sources that have chemical composition or
physical or physico-chemical properties distinct from common waters with characteristics
that give them a medication action". In addition to chemical composition,
these waters may be classified by other physical chemical characteristics, such as
temperature and gases; they are also studied in the field of medicine. The objective
of this study was to determine the concentration of the elements As, Ba, Br, Ca,
Ce, Co, Cr, Cs, Eu, Fe, Hf, K, La, Lu, Na, Nd, Rb, Sb, Sc, Se, Sm, Ta, Tb, Th,
U, Yb and Zn in the mineral waters from Parque das Águas of Cambuquira, springs
Gasosa I, II and III, Férrea, Magnesiana, Litinada and Marimbeiro springs 1, 2 and 3,
both parks located in the city of Cambuquira, MG. Parque das Águas of Marimbeiro
is located 3km from the center of the city of Cambuquira; the parks are managed
by the CODEMIG. A sample of a mineral water spring was also collected from a
private property open to the population, near to the park of Cambuquira and called
the spring of Laranjal or Dico. The samples for the autumn sampling of 2016 were
analyzed, for which the results obtained showed that in the mineral waters of the
parks Cambuquira and Marimbeiro was determined the elements Na and Ca, which
are expected elements since an important characteristic of fresh waters is that they
have an identity of the inorganic ions. This characteristic may be linked to the salts
of these ions being moderately soluble, thus facilitating their mobilization in aqueous
medium. Also determined in the waters were the elements Zn, Co, Fe and rare earth
elements such as Sm and La.
