“…10,11 Selenium poisoning has been wellstudied in the Daba region (Shaanxi) and the Enshi District (Hubei) in China. 9,12,13 The source of Se was identified as weathering of Se-rich shales, volcanic tuff, and coal. 12,13 Mobilization from rocks and sediments can be enhanced by agricultural practices such as irrigation.…”

“…The exposed Permian Se-rich strata comprised carbon-siliceous rocks and carbonaceous shale (known locally as 'stone coal'). The Upper Permian Mokou and Wujiaping Formations contained the highest level of Se (up to 8500 mg/kg) (Zhu et al, 2008). Natural strong weathering of Se-enriched rocks and intense human activities, such as stone coal mining and agricultural soil amendment with coal ash, resulted in stress contamination of Se, V, Mo and other heavy metals in soils and water.…”

“…There were about 477 cases of human Se poisoning reported during the sixty five years from 1923 to 1987 and more than 10000 cases of swine Se poisoning had been recorred over the past 4 decades in Enshi. In order to investigate the truth behind the selenosis incidence, numerous scientists have carried out a great number of experiments (Yang et al, 1983;Yang and Xia, 1995;Mao et al, 1997;Zheng et al, 1993;Zhu et al, 2008Zhu et al, , 2001Zhu et al, , 2012Fordyce et al, 2000). Previous studies primarily focused on the environmental geochemistry and intake of Se in local inhabitants.…”

“…Although Se is an essential trace element for humans and animals, high concentrations of it are harmful. Long-term exposure to high concentrations of Se may even result in hair and nail loss, and nervous system disorders [14]. Many cases of selenosis have been reported in regions with high Se concentrations [15].…”

“…Given the large coal consumption in power plants and industry sectors in Shandong, Sb, As, and Se emissions are considered to be the highest in China [12,14,21].…”
