Geophagic Clays from Cameroon: Provenance, Metal Contamination and Health Risk Assessment

This study assessed the mineralogical and geochemical characteristics of geophagic clays sold in some markets in Cameroon to ascertain their provenance, contamination status and human health risk. To achieve this, 40 samples from 13 markets in Cameroon were purchased and analysed using X-ray diffrac...
