Respirable Asbestiform Serpentines in Outdoor and Indoor Air Near an Active Serpentinite Quarry
Indoor Air, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.The excavation and processing of serpentinites release asbestos and asbestiform fibers into outdoor and indoor air near quarries. In this study, concentrations of respirable asbestiform antigorite and chrysotile in indoor and outdoor air in a village near a serpentinite quarry and processing plants in southwestern Poland were investigated. Serpentinite‐
