The result of marine products sample analysis showed that mercury concentration was in the range of no detection to 3.05 part per million (PPM). The highest concentration of mercury was detected in Untung Jawa island (6times higher than maximum allowable concentration). Risk assessment showed that Hg content in marine product smples from Untung Jawa and Tidung Islands have significant impact to its public health (RQ>1), but Hg content in marine product samples from Lancang and Pangan Island have no impact to its public health (RQ≤1).
