    Silicosis is a lung disease caused by long-term inhalation of crystalline silica dust. Silica dust is found in materials like stone, rock, sand, and clay. Working with these materials can create fine silica dust that is easily breathed into the lungs. Symptoms usually appear after many years of exposure and include cough, sputum production, and shortness of breath. There is no cure for silicosis.

    Silicosis is a long-term lung disease


    caused by inhaling large amounts of
    crystalline silica dust, usually over many
    years. Silica is a substance naturally found
    in certain types of stone, rock, sand and
    clay. Working with these materials can
    create a very fine dust that can be easily
    inhaled.
