Serious metallic mercury poisoning in the gilding of the Great Buddha in Nara in the 8 century: Trial calculation of exposure level
2023
Overview
Gilding of the Great Buddha was carried out in the 8th century using gold amalgam. Occurrence of serious metallic mercury poisoning was suspected strongly soon after the end of gilding. The trial calculation of minimum exposure level was 4.0 mgHg/m3. Occurrence of the worst metallic mercury poisoning in the recorded history was strongly suspected. The exposure level in artisanal open-pit gold mining might be similar to that in the gilding of the Great Buddha in the 8th century.
