Global Burden of Disease of Mercury Used in Artisanal Small-Scale Gold Mining

Annals of Global Health, 2017
Artisanal small-scale gold mining (ASGM) is the world's largest anthropogenic source of mercury emission. Gold miners are highly exposed to metallic mercury and suffer occupational mercury intoxication. The global disease burden as a result of this exposure is largely unknown because the informal character of ASGM restricts the availability of reliable
