Concentrations of forty-one water samples from twenty natural springs, fifteen boreholes, five hand-dug wells, and a stream a were detected. Nine heavy metals (Fe, Mn, Li, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Pb, and Ni) were analysed with Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (FAAS) and the data using different multivariate statistical approaches. Five component types; 24.40%, 14.50%, 12.10%, 9.64% and 9.24% extracted accounted for 69.79% total variance. The dominant variables derived from PCA's five components indicated the influence of the weathering of anhydrous carbonate, which released major cations and the PTEs. Calculated HQs and HI for adults and children were generally less than one (HQ < 1), indicating less or no potential carcinogenic, except for a heavy metal Cd. It exhibits an HQ and HI > 1, for children ingesting water from all the water sources. Hand-dug wells and surface water from the stream had HQ and HI > 1 for Cd for adults, which may not be harmful but with overtime exposure and may require monitoring; otherwise, it may pose more threats to adults and children with time.
