Fluoride in
Groundwater
![Page 14: Earth Materials and Human Health Pdfs... · 2019. 11. 29. · The effects on health depend on a number of factors including dose from other sources of fluoride (toothpastes, food),](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022071516/613923d9a4cdb41a985b83b8/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Fluoride and health
The optimum concentrations of fluoride in drinking water lie within a
relatively narrow range.
Fluoride has long been found to have a beneficial effect on dental health,
although when present in drinking water at concentrations much above the
WHO guideline value (and national drinking water limit for most countries)
of 1.5 mg/L, long term use can result in development of dental fluorosis or
at its worst, crippling skeletal fluorosis.
The effects on health depend on a number of factors including dose from
other sources of fluoride (toothpastes, food), age, gender and general
health status.
High-fluoride groundwaters tend to be found in association with:
• crystalline rocks containing fluorine-rich minerals, especially granites
and volcanic rocks
• shallow aquifers in arid areas experiencing strong evaporation
• sedimentary aquifers undergoing ion exchange
• inputs of geothermal water

High-fluoride groundwater, derived from combinations of reaction with
young volcanic rocks, geothermal inputs and evaporation, occurs
alongside alkaline lakes (pH>8) with, in some cases, concentrations of
dissolved fluoride up to 300 mg/L.
The association of high-fluoride groundwaters with granites and acidic
volcanic rocks occurs because of the relative abundance in these rocks
of high-fluoride minerals such as biotite, amphibole, apatite and fluorite.

Asbestos is a set of six naturally occurring silicate minerals, which all have in common
their eponymous asbestiform habit: i.e. long (roughly 1:20 aspect ratio), thin fibrous
crystals, with each visible fiber composed of millions of microscopic "fibrils" that can be
released by abrasion and other processes.[2] They are commonly known by their colors,
as blue asbestos, brown asbestos, white asbestos, and green asbestos.
