Thallium pollution in China: A geo-environmental perspective.
TL;DR: This paper aims to review the research progress in China on Tl pollution in terms of the source, mobility, transportation pathway, and health exposure of Tl and to address the environmental concerns on TL pollution in a geo-environmental perspective.
Journal ArticleDOI
Environmental concerns related to high thallium levels in soils and thallium uptake by plants in southwest Guizhou, China.
TL;DR: Thallium contamination in soils should be a critical parameter for proper land use and health related environmental planning and regulations in areas containing high contents of Tl in soils associated with the natural occurrence of TL-rich sulfides and coals, with or without mining activities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Medical geology of arsenic, selenium and thallium in China
TL;DR: The states of the endemic diseases of As, Se and Tl in China are still serious in some areas, and substantial research efforts regarding the health impacts of these elements are further required.
Journal ArticleDOI
