The data obtained from the results of laboratory tests of blood samples and the results of the interview respondents.Data would be analyzed using biavariate and multivariate statstic test. Results: There was 41.16% of respondents we re miners, processors as well as grates, the average of working period wa s 10 years, work duration 6 hours a day and 6 days a week. 97.56% of respondents have blood mercury levels above normal (U.S. EPA: 5.8 ppb).

There was a relationship between blood mercury levels with SGPT as an indicator of liver dysfunction (p value = 0.042) Conclusion: Overall, the data did not provide strong evidence that mercury exposure associated with incidence of liver disfunction.
