Exposure to Higher Levels of Radium and Uranium over a Long Period Can Lead to Death and Other Severe Health Problems High levels of radium can cause cancer (especially bone cancer), anemia, a problem with the blood; fractured teeth and cavities, and growths in the eyes called cataracts. Inhaling large concentrations of uranium can cause lung cancer from exposure to alpha particles. Uranium is also a toxic chemical, meaning that ingestion of uranium can cause kidney damage from its chemical properties much sooner than its radioactive properties would cause cancers of the bone or liver.

The Importance of Knowing about Lithium Mining Dangers Lithium toxicity signs are obvious and can be identified and managed easily; however, ignoring it can be fatal. Indeed, in some cases, lithium toxicity can lead to coma, brain damage, or even death. Moreover, lithium can induce serotonin syndrome, a potentially fatal and life-threatening condition. Please watch the video below to learn more about these dangers and most of the lithium for smartphones comes from Africa. Note If you like my content please comment, subscribe, and share my blogs.
