RESUMO

Water, essential for life, has a direct influence on health, quality of life and development of mankind. However, due to natural and human causes, water may suffer contamination from various species, especially for chemical elements. Thus, this paper appears the results of a study of multi-elemental chemical analysis of samples of treated water collected in Water Treatment Plants of twenty-two cities of South Region of Goias State. It was also exposes data on sanitation and hospital morbidity and mortality of the study area. It was found two geochemical associations (SO4-Cl-Zn-Mn and Ca-Sr-Mg), that were presented in maps of distribution of each element geochemistry. Also it was found anomalous concentrations above the maximum permitted values of nitrate in samples of Quirinópolis and Morrinhos, and lead in the sample of Cromínia, with possible impact on the morbidity and mortality of these municipalities.
