Abstract : In this work, 25 samples of water were collected from wells in different areas of the Western province of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia from Tabouk north to Abha south, as well as samples of bottled & tap water locally used in Jeddah, are analyzed for the content of the following elements in ppm & ppb: Calcium (Ca), Magnesium (Mg), Sodium (Na), Potassium (K), Iron (Fe), Aluminum (Al), Bismuth (Bi), Cesium (Cs), Mercury (Hg), Lead (Pb) and Uranium (U), by atomic absorption spectrometer. Also gamma spectrometer based on HP Ge crystal was used to determine concentrations in Bq\l of the natural radionuclides: Uranium-238_ Radium-226 series, Thorium-232 series and Potassium-40 in addition to man-made Cesium-137. Then the results were compared with limits given by the World Health Organization (WHO) to identify samples which are acceptable to be used for drinking purposes to that needs chemical treatment
