The documented loss of anthropogenic Pb from soil organic horizons and its migration into the mineral soil below has raised several environmental concerns, especially over the leaching of Pb into groundwater aquifers and subsequently into other environmental compartments of the ecosystem. Here, a complex colluvial soil formed over the last 10,000 years in NW Spain is studied. The objective is to evaluate the behavior of Pb in soils, including its migration rates and the potential use of complex soils as archives of atmospheric Pb pollution. To this end, Pb concentrations and Pb isotope ratios for total soil, and for acid-extractable (0.5 M HNO3) and residual fractions were determined. We show that the acid-extractable fraction is more radiogenic than the residual one in most of the soil profile and that this relationship is reversed in the surface layers (
