Crystalline Silica IARC: Monographs on the Evaluation of the Carcinogenic Risk of Chemicals to
Humans (vol. 68, 1997) concludes that there is sufficient evidence in humans for the carcinogenicity
of inhaled crystalline silica in the forms of quartz and cristobalite (Group 1) in certain industrial
circumstances, but that carcinogenicity may be dependent on inherent characteristics of the
crystalline silica or on external factors affecting its biological activity or distribution of its
polymorphs.

Medical Conditions Aggravated by Exposure: May aggravate existing pulmonary conditions.
EMERGENCy AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES:
Eye Contact: Flush eyes with water for 15 minutes. Seek medical attention if irritation persists.
