Further, "asbestos" is just a commercial term for several different minerals. Cancers are caused by a variety of things (which can include genetic factors), and many causes of all types of cancers are unknown. Certain types of 'asbestos' - amphiboles, including amosite and crocidolite - are linked to some types of mesothelioma and are particularly resistant to degradation, both in the environment and in the body. Amosite, used throughout ships, and in certain insulation applications, has been associated with malignant mesothelioma. However, a significant amount of respirable fibers must be inhaled before someone faces a material risk. But another type of 'asbestos' - chrysotile - which was used in auto brakes, for example, has NOT been linked with mesothelioma, by numerous independent studies.
