      The article discusses a review of the health effects of mercury in artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) that called for the implementation of the international treaty Minamata Convention on Mercury which requires national action plans that include a public health strategy on mercury exposure in ASGM. Topics discussed include mining policies for mercury reduction solutions, change in government policy towards poverty-driven ASGM, and challenges of reducing mercury use in ASGM.
