Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:SYMPTOMS OF EXPOS ARE DYSPENA-CAUSED
    BY MANY LUNG SCARS THAT DEVELOP FROM SILICA DUST - PAIN IN CHEST,
    DECREASED VITAL CAPACITY & COUGH. SKIN: WEAR APPROP WORK CLTHG TO
    MINIMIZE SKIN CNTCT & SKIN ABRA SION. EYE CNTCT: SILICA SAND DUST
    MAY BE AN IRRITANT TO THOSE SENSITIVE TO SUCH EXPOS. INHAL:HLTH
    HAZS CAN OCCUR FROM EXCESSIVE INHAL OF SILICA DUST, OTHERWISE
    NONTOXIC. PRLNGD OVEREXP TO CRYSTALLINE  FREE SILICA DUST ABOVE TLV
    SPECIFIED MAY CAUSE SCARRING OF LUNGS W/COUGH & SHORTNESS OF
    BREATH. DELAYED LUNG INJURY, SILICOSIS MAY RSLT FROM BRTHG FREE
    SILICA. (EFTS OF OVEREXP)
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:SILICA, CRYSTALLINE-QUARTZ: IARC
Effects of Overexposure:HLTH HAZS: SILICOSIS IS A FORM OF DISABLING,
    PROGRESSIVE & SOMETIMES FATAL PULM FIBROSIS CHARACTERIZED BY THE
    PRESENCE OF TYPICAL NODULATION IN THE LUNGS. (REFERENCE: H.E.W.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:CHRONIC LUNG SCARRING LEADS TO
    PROGRESSIVE MASSIVE FIBROSIS THAT IS OFTEN ACCOMPANIED BY INCREASED
    SUSCEPTIBILITY TO RISK IF IMPAIRED HEALTH DUE TO COMBINATION OF
    SMOKING & SILICA DUST EXPOSURE.
*  First Aid Measures  *
First Aid:GENERAL: IF KNOWN ACUTE EXPOSURE OR INCIDENT OCCURS,
    IMMEDIATELY CALL A PHYSICIAN OR NEAREST MEDICAL FACILITY. INHAL:
    FOR ACUTE EXPOSURE IMMEDIATELY REMOVE PERSON FROM CONTAMINATED
    AREA. FOR EXTREME R ESPIRATORY DISTRESS ADMINISTER OXYGEN. SKIN:
    REMOVE AFFECTED CLOTHING & WASH SKIN AREA EXPOSED. INGEST: WHILE
    INGESTION IS UNLIKELY, IF SUCH INCIDENT OCCURS REFER PERSON TO A
    PHYSICIAN. EYES: SAND MAY  BE IRRITATING TO EYES OF SENSITIVE OR
    ALLERGIC PERSONNEL. IN CASE OF EXTREME DISTRESS WASH EYES CAREFULLY
    ATTENTION.
