The isotopic ratios of lead vary, with geographic locations. In this study, lead isotopic ratios of soil from different regions in Fujian Province are determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, the differences of lead isotopic ratios (Pb-206/Pb-207, Pb-206/Pb-208) in the total digests of soil fractions and in that of the residual fractions we compared. The results show that lead isotopic ratios of residual fraction are more efficient than that of total digests of soil fractions in identifying sources of soil.
