Sales brochure for Calidria asbestos pellets from Union Carbide's Metals Division. The cover says the pellets are essentially dust-free and bulk-handled, and the back lists regional sales offices and the King City plant. The one interior page (printed page 4) compares Calidria chrysotile with Canadian asbestos and describes the wet-processing method and RG-244. A final page from a journal article on detecting chrysotile asbestos is also included.
