Furthermore, there is some information gap regarding how much workers in quarry mines are exposed to silica dust particles, a major chemical element in granite rock (Bratveit et al., 2003). Understanding the level of exposure will help us determine if the workers are at risk of suffering from silicosis, an irreversible severe lung condition.
