Mercury Usage in Gold Mining and Why It Is a Problem
2019. 7. 22. How Mercury Is Used in Gold Mining First, mercury is mixed with the materials containing gold. A mercury-gold amalgam then is formed because gold will dissolve in the mercury while other impurities will not. The mixture of gold and mercury is then heated to a temperature that will vaporize the mercury,

Reducing Mercury Pollution from Artisanal and Small-Scale
The town of La Rinconada (pop: 40,000) in the Andes is one of the highest cities in the world, at 17,020 feet above sea level, and is one of the most productive artisanal gold mining sites in Peru. All of the gold is produced through mercury amalgamation, with open mercury use. There are an estimated 250-300 gold shops in La Rinconada.

Mercury hazards from gold mining to humans, plants, and
Abstract. Mercury contamination of the environment from historical and ongoing mining practices that rely on mercury amalgamation for gold extraction is widespread. Contamination was particularly severe in the immediate vicinity of gold extraction and refining operations; however, mercury, especially in the form of water-soluble methylmercury, may

(PDF) The Mercury Problem in Artisanal and Small-Scale
Mercury-dependent artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) is the largest source of mercury pollution on Earth. In this practice, elemental mercury is used to extract gold from ore as an amalgam.
