Mercury is rising this summer!

In honor of the 150th anniversary of Alice in Wonderland, the AIC's Health & Safety Committee would like to remind you of the hazards of working with objects containing mercury. Avoid becoming "mad as a hatter" and make sure you take proper precautions before starting your journey through your historic looking glasses.

Check out our past article on tin-mercury amalgam mirrors (AIC News, January 2013, p.12):
