  • Title: [Silicosis hazard of silica dusts in diamond mining industry (experimental study)].
    Author: Mironova GE, Bezrukavnikova LM, Kuz'mina LP.
    Journal: Med Tr Prom Ekol; 2001; (4):13-7. PubMed ID: 11503228.
    Abstract:
    Slow progressing experimental coniosis was induced by exposure to two samples of silica dust that was obtained from diamond openwork in "Mir" quarry of Yakutia. Moderate fibrogenicity of the dusts studied results from relatively low portions of silica and from metals oxides admixtures.
