Add to ORKGAsbestos comprises a group of six hydrated silicate minerals capable of forming very thin fibres: chrysotile, crocidolite, amosite, anthophyllite, tremolite and actino-lite [1]. Chrysotile belongs to the serpentine group and the other five to the amphibole group of minerals. Chrysotile fibre bundles split easily and magnesium can be leached under weak acid conditions. These factors may contribute to the lower biopersistence of chrysotile in the lungs. Guidelines for mineral fibre analyses in biological samples. Report of the ERS Workin
