“Thallium Removal from Mine Waste Waters”
“Thallium is more toxic to humans than mercury, cadmium, lead, copper, or zinc”

“An unauthorized attempt to sell and purchase a virulent poisonous substance, thallium, was prevented. The FSB discovered a group of people who schemed the resale of the poisonous metal. Special search activities were held to withdraw about five kilogram of thallium. The people were detained, and a criminal case based on the RF Criminal Code article #234 was initiated. The substance is extremely dangerous. The maximum concentration limit of thallium in water makes up only 0,0001 mg/m3, and 0,0004 mg/m3 in free air. Thallium is extremely ecologically dangerous because it quickly oxidizes when exposed to air.”
