Environmental Impacts of Mining and Smelting ...
2021-11-18 Occupational and environmental exposure to heavy metals, silica, and asbestos can occur during mining and milling operations. The smelting process (extracting the metal from the ore) is associated with the highest exposures and environmental releases. The hazards to human health caused by exposure to heavy metals – including lead, cadmium and ...

Environmental Impacts of Lead Ore Mining and Smelting ...
Present day lead pollution is an environmental hazard of global proportions. A correct determination of natural lead levels is very important in order to evaluate anthropogenic lead contributions. In this paper, the impact of mining and smelting of lead metal ores on environmental quality is described. Globally mines produce large amounts of waste because the ore is only a small fraction of ...
