A 16-page promotional booklet by the Quebec Asbestos Mining Association, for Bell, Carey-Canada, Johns-Manville Canada and Lac d'amiante du Québec. It covers world production, chrysotile geology, mining history and processing, tailings, the Quebec Standard, and uses in asbestos-cement, papers and felts, friction materials, textiles, vinyl tile, plastics and asphalt. Its 'Asbestos and health' page calls asbestos 'one of the safest products on the market today'. It says public exposure involves 'no significant health hazard' and compares the lung-cancer risk at 1 f/cc to smoking two cigarettes a week.
