The Sb concentrations in the soil, moss and sediment samples from Ny-Alesund, Svalbard, were determined. The Sb concentrations in the soil and moss samples from the area with previous coal mine are substantially higher than those from the area without, apparently caused by coal mining activities. The studied moss Dicranum anaqustum has a great enrichment of Sb, and thus a good potential of being used as bio-indicator for the Sb pollution in Ny-Alesund. The Sb level in the surface 10cm sediments of one sediment column has a striking associated with human activities such as coal mine exploitation and utilization and oil burning.
