SECTION VI – HEALTH HAZARD DATA
+ Silica, Crystalline (Quartz)
A single exposure will not result in serious adverse health effects.
Respirable crystalline silica (quartz) can cause silicosis, a fibrosis (scarring) of the lungs. Silicosis may be
progressive; it may lead to disability and death. Crystalline silica (quartz) inhaled from occupational sources
is classified as carcinogenic to humans. There are some studies that show excess numbers of cases of
scleroderma and other connective tissue disorders in workers exposed to respirable crystalline silica.
