For this purpose a research work was conduct on River Kabul at Kond Marble factory. Water samples were collected from the selected three sites of River Kabul at Kond Marble factory and also analyzed for heavy metals detection by atomic absorption spectrophotometer. In this survey, the concentration of heavy metals obtained was Zn 1.2-231 ppm; Cu 0.3-1.89 ppm; Cd 0.13-0.75 ppm; Pb 1.13-0.96 ppm; Cr 0.01-0.02 ppm and Mn 0.11-0.44 ppm respectively. The current results reviled that tree heavy metals Cu, Cd and Pb exceed from the standard recommended level.
