Commissioner of the Guyana Geology and Mines Commission, Newell Dennison has already confirmed that 20 workers of his regulatory agency that shares the same compound with the Gold Board had high levels of mercury in their system.
Dennison has said the National Insurance Scheme has been informed, and that steps were being taken to import special pharmaceuticals that are not readily available locally to treat the affected workers. He did not see the immediate need to send any of the GGMC employees overseas for treatment.
