The results indicate that all the studied samples (100%) were exceed the local and international permissible values of Cadmium and copper, while 60% of them were exceeded the acceptable values of Nickel. Also, it was found that 15% of the studied samples are with high concentrations of lead which exceeded the Iraqi standard and about 35% of them exceeded the limits values of WHO. Zinc concentrations were still with the acceptable range for all the samples.
