INORGANIC MINERALS, this group of contaminants includes the minerals and toxic metals

RADIOACTIVE MINERALS, this group is really a subset of the first group and can include uranium, plutonium and radium

Gas or liquid-phase organic contaminants may include volatile organic compounds in the form of solvents, chemical precursors and intermediates, petroleum compounds.
