At present, there is concern about engineered nanoparticles in the environment, whereas natural nanoparticles (NPs) and their impact are often neglected. In our paper, we demonstrate the important role of nanoparticles of volcanic ash in transport of toxic elements on a global scale. A single volcanic eruption can eject millions of tons of ash. NPs of volcanic ash reach the upper troposphere and the stratosphere and may “travel” around the world for years affecting human health, environment, and even climate. So far, there is a gap in exposure assessment of volcanic ash NPs since their chemical composition remains largely unknown. Here we show for the first time that volcanic ash NPs can serve as an important carrier for potentially toxic elements. The concentrations of Ni, Zn, Cd, Ag, Sn, Se, Te, Hg, Tl, Pb, Bi in volcanic ash NPs (<100 nm) were found to be 10–500 times higher than total contents of these elements in bulk samples. This is valid for volcanoes from different regions of the world (Kamchatka, Far East of Russia and Andes, Chile). The work opens a new door into studies on biogeochemical impact of volcanic ash. Display omitted •Nanoparticles (NPs) of volcanic ash were separated and quantitatively analyzed.•Samples of volcanic ash from different regions of the world were studied.•NPs are highly enriched by toxic elements as compared to bulk volcanic ash.•Dramatically high concentrations of Cd, Hg, Tl, Pb, Bi, Se, Te were found in NPs.•Volcanic ash NPs can serve as an important worldwide carrier for toxic elements.
