In order to evaluate the impact of mining activities and ecological restoration measures on soil heavy metal pollution in antimony mining areas, the pollution status and regional characteristics of Sb, As, Pb and Cd in soils of different land properties among smelting area, road nearby ore, mining area and ore tailing area of antimony mine area in Xikuangshan, Hunan were studied, in addition, the ground accumulation index method and the potential ecological risk index method were used to evaluate pollution and ecological risk. It was found that the average contents of Sb, As, Pb and Cd in soil samples in the study area were 3 619.38 mg/kg, 82.20 mg/kg, 244.28 mg/kg and 30.84 mg/kg respectively, and heavy metal compound pollution were serious, the accumulation index method and the potential ecological risk index method indicate that Sb and Cd pollution in antimony ore area is serious, As, Pb has mild to moderate pollution, comprehensive has a strong ecological risk, among which Sb and Cd are the most important pollution factors. Significant regional characteristics was showed by the heavy metal concentration in soils among each areas because of mining activities such as smelting, mining, transportation and stacking; the content of Sb in soil samples decreased successively in residue-field, wasteland, forestland, sediment, grassland and vegetable-field, which indicated that the method of grassland ecological restoration was an effective method to control soil antimony pollution.
