Section 2
SECTION 2: Hazards identification
To Health: During normal handling and use where adequate dust control measures are observed, there is no risk to health. Risk to health rises from dust released into the air. The dust will contain some respirable free crystalline silica that may enter and remain lodged in the alveoli areas of the lungs. Lodged particles can cause irritation of the lungs. The long term effect of prolonged exposure can be silicosis. To Environment: There are no known environmental hazards related to this naturally occurring material. The effect of product release on plant and wildlife will be the same as that of dust normally present in the atmosphere with the significance dependant on the concentration. Dust coating on plant life will have a detrimental effect on photosynthesis.
