Description:Silica is in many materials common on construction sites, such as sand, concrete, and rock. When heavy construction equipment disturbs these materials during, for example, demolition and paving, dust containing crystalline silica can be released into the air. Workers who breathe this dust are at risk of developing serious, sometimes fatal lung diseases such as silicosis, lung cancer, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It has also been linked to illnesses such as kidney disease.
