Amalgamation, the process of using mercury to separate gold from the alluvial mud it's found in here, is commonplace in Cameroon and elsewhere, despite the extreme toxicity of this chemical. CED says the run-off from gold-washing is putting the health of miners, including many young children, as well as local residents at risk.

In resource-rich Peru a miner can work 12 hours a day and still struggle to bring home $50 a month. On top of that, a simple 10-gram gold wedding ring can create up to three tonnes of toxic waste. While the movie Blood Diamond has helped create some awareness of the exploitation of miners, little has actually changed within the jewellery industry.

Silver (Ag), like gold, crystallizes in the face-centred cubic system. It melts when heated to 962 °C (1,764 °F). With a density of 10.49 grams per cubic centimetre, it is the lightest of the precious metals. It is also the least noble of the precious metals, reacting readily with many common reagents such as nitric acid and sulfuric acid.

The leaching or extraction of soluble matter from a mixture through the use of cyanide, is when the miners use cyanide to dissolve and separate the gold from the mineral. When done correctly, it is considered a safer alternative to the use of mercury since the toxicity of the substance can be deactivated.

If an ore contains gold and silver, it is treated with a solution of sodium cyanide to dissolve both metals. When powdered zinc is added to the solution, the precious metals form a sludge, which is collected and further refined to separate the gold from the silver.

The ore is mixed with calcium oxide and silica, producing a slag. This makes it possible to separate silver, a mixture of materials rich in copper, nickel and cobalt and a scorifiable residue. This mixture rich in copper, nickel and cobalt is what is technically called "speiss". Getting from this mixture to the pure metal is a complex process.

To separate gold particles from a concentrate, concentrate is fed into the centrifuge through a pipe at the top of the machine in a slurry of around 60-75% water and 40-35% solids.
