Formalizing artisanal and small-scale gold mining: A grand challenge of the Minamata Convention [PDF]
One Earth, 2022 Artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) is the world's largest source of anthropogenic mercury emissions and releases. These have devastating consequences for miners' health and the environment.

Artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) is currently one of the largest anthropogenic sources of mercury (Hg) to the atmosphere and a significant source to downstream terrestrial aquatic systems. Given the potential toxicity of Hg when it is released to aquatic ecosystems, both scientific and regulatory communities have interest in the development

Artisanal and small-scale mining activities are most evident among communities surrounding the Acupan River in Itogon Benguet. The mining activities include manual extraction of gold ores, use of improvised ball/rod mills and sluice boxes, and metallurgical processing such as cyanidation, carbon-in-pulp (CIP) and amalgamation.

This study presents a picture of ASGM in Brazil and prospective numbers on mercury emissions and releases in 2016, when the country declared production of about 90 tonnes of gold, of which circa 25 tonnes came from ASGM. However, it is also necessary to consider the illegal production of ASGM which is estimated to vary between 10% and eight times more ...

Background: Artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) accounts for more than fifty percent of national gold production, contributing to sustainable livelihood and economic development in Zimbabwe. However, ASGM in Zimbabwe involves semi-mechanised ASM and high-risk underground mining processes with compromised workplace practices.
