The present study was conducted to determine the concentration of heavy metals in some selected    sediment samples from traditional gold mining area at Elabdeia Berber city Nile State Sudan. In addition, soil samples were collected from the site   of the study to serves as control. The heavy metals were analyzed using X-Ray Fluoresce. The results were treated statistically by ANOVA analysis and multivariate analysis such as cluster.  Based on obtained results, the average concentrations for Fe, Mn, Ni, Cr, Cu, Pb, and Zn were very high in the sediment.  The concentrations of Fe, Mn, Cr, and Cu were very higher in the soil (control) than in sediment, but the concentration of Pb and Zn were higher in sediment and this attributed to industrial and extraction of gold mining. The results of this study were compared with previous literature.
