Yes. Organic matter (OM) consists of plant and animal residue (decomposed or un-decomposed) besides other organic wastes, that contain large no of macro and micro nutrients. Chemical and microbiological transformation of these elements result in accumulation of certain metals like Fe, Zn, Cu, Mn in soil. However, parent material of OM is mostly responsible for metal transformation.
