Cobaltous carbonate is used as a feed additive for ruminants, horses and rabbits (dietary cobalt is needed for vitamin B12 synthesis). Cobaltous carbonate has carcinogen, mutagen and reproduction toxicant properties. Cobaltous carbonate is a skin and eye irritant, and a dermal and respiratory sensitizer. Its dust is a hazard to persons handling the substance. Exposure by inhalation must be avoided.
