Minor metals of the geochemical environment, health and disease
December 11, 1970

One aspect of the environment -- that concerned with the geochemistry of the rocks, soils, plants, and water -- should be studied carefully and the distribution of minor elements be compared with geographic patterns of animal and human health and disease.
