Geochemistry of trace elements in Chinese coals: A review of abundances, genetic types, impacts on human health, and industrial utilization
TLDR
The background values of trace elements were dominated by sediment source regions in coal-bearing strata in China as mentioned in this paper, and the genetic types for trace-element enrichment of Chinese coals include source-rock- controlled, marine-environment-controlled, hydrothermal-fluid-controlled (including magmatic-, low-temperature-hydrothermalfluid-, and submarine-exhalation-controlled subtypes), groundwater-controlled and volcanic-ash-controlled.About:

Trace Elements in Coal
TL;DR: In this article, the origins of trace elements in coal and the mode of occurrence of trace element in coal were investigated. But the results were limited to trace element detection in coal.

Endemic selenium intoxication of humans in China
TL;DR: An endemic disease was discovered in 1961 in parts of the population of Enshi County, Hubei Province of the People's Republic of China and the morbidity was almost 50% in the 248 inhabitants of the five most heavily affected villages; its cause was determined to be selenium intoxication.
