Abstract
The contamination of a large area in Yugoslavia by lead from a mine and smelter (which have operated for centuries) is illustrated in a preliminary report by fragmentary data obtained by the determination of lead in the surrounding air, in the water of a river draining the area, in the soil, and in local vegetation. A screening test (determination of the urinary excretion of δ-aminolevulinic acid) applied to groups in the population suggests that the absorption of lead by members of the groups may be hazardous.
