  Quicksilver & Gold: Mercury Pollution from Artisanal and …

  2012111 · For centuries miners have used mercury to trap particles of precious metals. Artisanal and small-scale gold miners used an estimated 1,400 metric tons of mercury in 2011. About one-third of the mercury used is believed to go into the air while the rest goes into soils and waterways.

  Direct determination of trace mercury and cadmium in food …

  On the basis of the vaporization temperature difference principle between Hg and Cd analytes, a novel solid sampling system coupled with atomic fluorescence spectrometry (AFS) was developed for the sequential determination of trace Hg and Cd in food samples. The solid sampling system mainly comprised a gold coil trap for Hg and a tungsten coil …
