Asbestos
Asbestos is a naturally occuring mineral composed of small fibers. Used for many years because of its lightweight and fire resistant properties in insulation, cement, roofing tiles and many other products. Exposure to Asbestos was linked to the non-cancerous occupational disease asbestosis as early as 1930. In the late 1950's asbestos exposure was linked to a rare cancer called mesothelioma.
