The purpose of this study is to know the "Concentration of Heavy Metal Mercury in Gastropods, Sediment and Sea water at Amurang Bay. As the concentration of these heavy metals in living things (gastropod), sediment, and sea water being figured up that it will be known the level of heavy metal contaminant in Amurang Bay. This study was approached by purposive sampling method and Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS) of the Laboratory of Balai Riset dan Standarisasi Industri dan Perdagangan
