The concentrations of chromium, cadmium, copper, lead, zinc and manganese in Tamarindus indica plants growing on automobile contaminated sites (Dass Park and Mechanic village within Bauchi Metropolis were determined, in order to find out the phytoaccumulation potential of the plant for these metals. The weighted means of the various metals in the plant under investigation were observed to be higher than those obtained in the control site. The weighted mean of the metals in Dass Park was as follows: Cu (97.67mg/kg)> Zn (75.70mg/kg) > Mn (60.33 mg/kg) > (Pb 40.53 mg/kg) > Cr (3.52 mg/kg)> Cd (0.72 mg/kg). In Mechanic Village, a similar order was observed, with Cu (111.62 mg/kg)> Zn (64.93 mg/kg)> Mn (51.80 mg/kg)> Pb (48.77 mg/kg)> Cr (5.62 mg/kg)> Cd (2.34 mg/kg). The average concentration factors (CF) of the six elements in the Tamarindus indica studied at both contaminated sites were in the order: Cu (1.28)> Zn (0.38)> Mn (0.31)> Pb (0.27)> Cr (0.08)>Cd (0.06). Cadmium (Cd) has the highest translocation ratio, while Zn was observed to be the least. All the metals except Cd and Zn tend to accumulate mostly on the barks and roots of Tamarindus indica and this would therefore decrease their transfer probabilities to secondary consumers.
