An updated Technical Global Background Report for the Global Mercury Assessment 2013 has
been published by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and
the Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Programme (AMAP). Dr. Kevin Telmer
of the Artisanal Gold Council is a lead author and contributor. A key
point within this report is the identification of artisanal and
small-scale gold mining as the single largest source of anthropogenic
mercury emissions to the environment.
