The aim of this study was to look into the effect of land use or human activity on soil samples and to distinguish between pollution from anthropogenic sources or natural sources using magnetic susceptibility and statistical method. In soil samples from Tiruvannamalai Dist, Tamilnadu, magnetic susceptibility measurements at low frequency (lf) and high frequency (hf) were carried out. The physic-chemical properties such as % of sand, silt, clay, Electrical conductivity (EC) and pH in soil samples were determined using the standard methods. This research involves the identification of ferrimagntic minerals in soil samples from various locations in Tiruvannamalai, Tamil Nadu, using frequency-dependent susceptibility. The mean value of low and high frequency magnetic susceptibility are found to be 273.39 ×10-8m3 kg-1 and 270.51×10-8m3kg-1 respectively. In some locations, the magnetic enhancement value suggests a high concentration of ferrimagntic minerals in the soil. Multivariate statistical analysis, such as factor analysis (FA), Pearson correlation (PC), and cluster analysis (CA), is used to determine the role of physic-chemical parameters on magnetic susceptibilities and to assess the contamination level of soil samples. This analysis revealed that magnetic susceptibility can be used as a proxy for determining the level of contamination in the soil.
