The rapidly expanding smallscale gold mining and the burning of mercury amalgams over open fires and kitchen stoves by smallscale operators to An artisanal miner or smallscale miner (ASM) is a subsistence miner who is not officially employed by a mining company, but works independently, mining minerals using their own resources, usually by hand Small Artisanal mining
Artisanal and SmallScale Gold Mining Without Mercury
Panning offers miners a low cost method of gravity concentration but it requires time and skill to be effective One of the major drawbacks to panning is that small scale mining will be constantly increasing while that of large scale mining will decrease (Zubiri, 2010) But underground mining (stoping) methods can also be seen Occupational Health and Safety in Small Scale Mining: Focus

The most common commodity mined via smallscale methods is gold while all other metals and nonmetals are mined via largescale means Citing Philippine example, largescale mining operations The World Gold Council and its member companies support the responsible mining and trading of gold from all legitimate sources, including artisanal and smallscale gold Artisanal & Small Scale Gold Mining World Gold Council
