Abstract
An epidemilogical investigation was undertaken to determine the relationship between silicosis in hardrock miners in Ontario (Canada) and cumulative exposure to silica (free crystalline silica-.alpha. quartz) dust. This report describes the analytic method and presents the risk estimates.Keywords
