The water problems generated by the negative impacts of mining in Bolivia have international recognition. The micro-basin of Milluni, mining activity territory, is an important freshwater source for the department of La Paz. The water treatment plants that treat the Milluni water do not have specific treatments to remove heavy metals; water quality is not guaranteed. Identifying the heavy metals present in the area is the first step in seeking solutions to this contamination. This study makes an evaluation of the current monitoring program in Milluni, compiling and analyzing historical data since 2006 in order to identify persistent heavy metals in the area.
