In　order　to　understand　the　heavy　metal　pollution　status　and　ecological　effect　in　aquatic　environment　around　copper　mine　areas,　seven　heavy　metals　(Cd,　Cd,　Cr,　Cu,　Hg,　Zn,　the　Ni,　and　Pb)　in　aquatic　environments　in　seven　representative　copper　mine　regions　were　selected　from　the　literature　in　2005-2013　for　ecological　risk　assessment　by　using　potential　ecological　risk　index,　geoaccumulation　index,　nemerow　index　and　species　sensitivity　distribution　method　(Potential　Affected　Fraction　(PAF)　and　Multi-Substance　PAF　(MSPAF)).　The　results　of　sediment　ecological　risk　analysis　showed　that　Cd,　Cu　and　Pb　were　the　main　pollutants　in　sediments.　The　results　of　species　sensitivity　distribution　analysis　showed　that　the　HC5　values　(Hazardous　Concentration　for　5%　of　species)　of　seven　heavy　metals　were　different　with　order　Zn　＞　Cr　＞　Cd　＞　Pb　＞　Cu　＞　Ni　＞　Hg.　The　MSPAF　of　seven　copper　mines　in　the　following　order　with　species　sensitivity　distribution　method　was　as　follows:　Dabaoshan　(99%)　=　Dahongshan　(99%)　=　Baiyin　(99%)　＞　Dexing　(97%)　＞　Jinchuan　(92%)　＞　Tongling　(39%)　＞　Daye　(24%).　This　study　analyzes　the　impact　of　copper　mining　on　the　aquatic　environment,　and　the　results　of　this　study　will　be　great　value　for　the　comprehensive　pollution　governance　of　mining.
