Illegal gold mining in the Amazon is fueling a 'mercury boom' in central Mexico
Illegal gold mining in the Amazon is fueling a 'mercury boom' in central Mexico
The soaring price of gold is fueling a "mercury boom" in central Mexico. A surge in the demand for the toxic metal, which is key in illegal gold mining, is benefiting Mexican miners but also exposing them and the environment to mercury poisoning. Despite global efforts to ban mercury mining, demand has skyrocketed, with prices increasing tenfold over 15 years. This trend poses significant health risks to miners and threatens the region's biodiversity. Concerns are also growing that organized crime could exploit the increasingly precarious market.
