The results of litho and biochemical studies of urban agglomerations in order to highlight areas of environmental risk. Analyzed radon in soil, air and basements zones of tectonic disturbances territory of Pechersk district of Kiev , with the result that identified environmental risk area (the intersection of the boulevard of Druzhbu Narodov and the street Michurin). According to research samples of soil samples in a scanning electron microscope with microprobe analysis revealed the nature of the origin of man-made geochemical anomalіy: if oolite structure – aerogenic. Analysis of the results of studies of various kinds and parts of plants (stalks of perennial grasses, leaves, linden and birch) metropolitan areas revealed that perennial grasses stalks are effective indicators for air pollution and soil – Mo, Pb, Sr, Zn.

Key words: environmental risk, superficial deposits, radon, vegetation, chemical elements.
