USGS Report Identifies Asbestos Localities in Central U.S.

USGS Report Identifies Asbestos Localities in Central U.S.: "A report published by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) contains a regional map and an associated database that inventory 36 locations of reported natural asbestos and fibrous amphibole occurrences in the central United States. The map is based on a search of scientific literature and does not identify any new occurrences of asbestos. It is the second in a series which originated last year with the publication of a similar report on the eastern United States."
