Gold solubility can also be reduced with the use of bacteria that help in consuming the ligands that bind the gold or by bio-sorption, enzymatic reduction and precipitation and by using gold as micronutrient . In addition, bacteria can also indirectly influence gold solubilization by enhancing the permeability of gold-bearing ores bodies .
Water resources are crucial in developing any area as they serve as a major source of potable, agricultural, and industrial water. Water contamination, caused by natural and anthropogenic activities, poses a significant threat to public health globally. This review synthesizes data from various studies published in national and international journals, as …
This thesis probes a neglected area lying at the interface between medical and labour history and is concerned with issues of occupational health and safety in the British chemical industry between the First World War and the passage of the Health and Safety at Work Act of 1974.
Industrialization, climate change, and expansion of urban areas produce a variety of water pollutants. In this work, we discuss some of the most recent and relevant findings related to the release of heavy metals, the possible risks for the environment and human health, the materials and technologies available for their removal.

terms of environmental, health and safety aspects (Aylmore, 2005; Laitos, 2012). Also, slow leaching kinetics and high cyanide consump-tion can be observed in the presence of refractory minerals, carbonac-eous matter and copper-bearing gold ores, increasing the costs of pro-cessing (Adams, 2016; Hiskey and Atluri, 1988; Hilson and Monhemius, 2006).
Electronic waste is an important part of solid waste management around the world. Being a large part of the solid waste, e-waste contains numerous hazardous components in the form of halogenated compounds like polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA), polybrominated biphenyl (PBB), etc. along with other …
Occurrence and distribution of titanium ore in nature. Titanium is the 9th most abundant element in the Earth's crust, occurring primarily in the form of minerals known as titanium ores. The most common titanium minerals are ilmenite (FeTiO3), rutile (TiO2), and leucoxene (a weathered form of ilmenite). These minerals are widely …

3. Health risks: underground miners Health problems of gold miners from selected locations in Australia, North America, South America, and Africa are briefly documented. 3.1. AUSTRALIA Australian gold miners are vulnerable to dengue fever (a mosquito-borne acute infectious viral disease characterised by headache, severe joint pain, and rash),
The aim of this paper is to present a systematic review of the mineral processing of gold ores, with special focus on alternative leaching reagents to cyanide …

Section snippets Physical processing. Physical processing methods are widely applied in mineral separation. In the case of gold ores, physical separation can be employed to produce concentrates, and in the case of free-milling ores or to produce gold intermediate-enriched mineral products, by rejecting gangue material, which facilitates …

Results. It was found that 41% of the sampled groups were exposed to higher crystalline silica levels above the (NIOSH) permissible exposure limit (PEL) level of 0.05 mg/m 3.For DPM, 49% of these groups had exposures above the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) PEL level of 160 μg/m 3.Among the 94 mine workers …
to a hazard, the analysis of hazard mechanism by which this undesirable event could occur and usually the estimation of extent, magnitude and likelihood of harmful effects. The objective of hazards and risk analysis is to identify and analyze hazards, the event sequences leading to hazards and the risk of hazardous events.

The radiological hazard indices calculated in the present work were higher than unity, presenting a potential radiological hazard to the population in the area. The average values for the external hazard (H ex) and internal hazard (H in) from the mine tailings were found to be 2.4 and 4.5 respectively. The results obtained in this study have ...
The study of gold sites in the Migori Gold Belt, Kenya, revealed that the concentrations of heavy metals, mainly Hg, Pb and As are above acceptable levels. Tailings at the panning sites recorded values of 6.5–510 mg kg−1 Pb, 0.06–76.0 mg kg−1 As and 0.46–1920 mg kg−1 Hg. Stream sediments had values of 3.0–11075 mg kg−1 Pb, 0.014–1.87 mg kg−1 …
