Water sources in mining areas do not retain their natural quality due to the influence of mine drainage. Water quality test was through hydrochemical analysis, speciation modelling and saturation indices. Physical properties were measured insitu using pH/conductivity meter and mercury in glass thermometer. Nitrate, phosphate, sulphate, chlorite, sodium, magnesium, calcium, and total hardness were measured using ion chromatography and titration. Heavy metals were analysed using atomic absorption spectrometer. Mean values of turbidity (0.13 mg/L), lead, (0.01 mg/L) and cadmium (6.40 mg/L) exceeded their permissible values for potable water. Multivariate statistical analysis shows geogenic and anthropogenic sources of chemical species. Chemical speciation shows the cations exist mostly in their soluble and mobile form as free ions. Water quality index shows that few water samples are good for drinking, irrigation and industrial uses, and more are suitable for irrigation only. The method is reproducible by scientists to solve related environmental problems elsewhere.
