~~~=+~. - ~-92 W EL 1 L+ Sp F W S/La. ~,,i En for-cement P k74 <br />` ,4 ~ • <br />~sicnl~py <br />Cyanide ~wac aot detected in specimen N 1. Cadmium was found at elevated levels in the <br />liver and kidney, The ecology of the elevated cadmium is unlmnwn since this metal !s found <br />in high concentrations In'many grains and shellfish. <br />SPECRfEN N 2 <br />cr,^ ~atl~9tc~P,X <br />Spwimcrt q 2 was found to be in good body condition. Advanced decomposition was nut <br />evident indicating that death had occurred a short period of time prior to dis~:ovcry. <br />Il'i •tct hg14gx <br />The heart, liver, kidney and lungs were examined. The heart and lungs showed no <br />signifiu"int lesions. No significant lesions were found in the kidneys although several nests of <br />parasitic eggs were present. The liver was found to contain an extensive amount of brown <br />granular matelial throughout. This material was felt to be compatit~le with iron deposition. <br />There was also mild dift'use fatty degeneration of the liver. <br />oxicolo <br />C.yanidc was :: ,t detected to specimen p 2, Selenium w•as found at elevated levels in the <br />liver and laJncy. The etiology of the elevated scleniunt is unknown since this metal is found <br />in high concentrations in many snits and plants throughout the Southwestern rJnited States. <br />CONCLUSION <br />There is no evidence to suggest that the cause of death in specimen t+ 1 and s.~cximen ly 2 is <br />related to emissions or ingestion of process cyanide. <br /> <br />IIAY'- 6-'32 l•lEL 1@:33 17196723363 P.04 <br />05 Cc' _ 1ln i~ $ 171 x6723363 BG7TLE Mi.
