The present investigation was conducted to evaluate the amount of heavy metals from River Siran at Khaki site Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. The chosenheavy metals were Zn, Cu, Cd, Pb, Cr and Mn correspondingly. In the current survey,the concentration of heavy metals examined were Zn 1.14-1.85 ppm; Cu 1.04-1.25 ppm; Cd 0.02-1.35 ppm; Pb 0.05-1.27 ppm; Cr 0.04-0.16 ppm and Mn 0.06-0.08 ppm respectively. In the present research Cu, Cd, Pb and Cr were found above the permissible ranges while Zn 1.13-1.88 and Mn 0.01-0.04 were lies within the permissible limits.
