I believe people work in mines develops silicosis all the time. Isn't this exactly where we found silicosis exists? Cutting natural stone didn't seems to be a 100% safe-proof option in my opinion.
Medical data shows that people who work in mines develop silicosis some of the time.
Cutting natural stone is not a 100% safe occupation (like almost every occupation).
The specific difference here in the case in Australia is that since Engineered Stone first entered the Australian market in the early 2000’s medical data shows a significant rise in silicosis cases.
It's not that Before Engineered Stone was 100% safe,
it's that Post Engineered Stone appears to be considerably less safe.
Maybe it's the resin, maybe it's the particle size that's so uniform, maybe it's a coincidence . . .
