Asbestos exposure is linked to Amosite,Chrysotile and many other sites in State that were built during or before the mid-1980s. Before the ban on asbestos in construction materials, a wide range of asbestos materials were used in the construction and other building projects in City, including ceiling tiles, flooring, ductwork, and even textured paint.

Chrysotile is a mineral, not a rock. Another name for this mineral is "white asbestos." In fact, chrysotile asbestos is the most commonly used asbestos mineral. ... Zimbabwe. Onto the crucial buyers' question: how much do chrysotile gemstones cost? ...
Chrysotile is a healing crystal that has been used for centuries to promote physical and spiritual health. It is said to have many benefits, including promoting peace of mind, assisting you in meeting your goals, and providing protection against negative energy. Chrysotile is also believed to help with emotional healing, stress relief, and increasing your overall well-being.

While bringing down a wall some of the paper from the ceiling ripped off with the sheetrock. Since I knew asbestos was still used in those days I figure I would play it safe and get a few things tested. Everything came back clean with the exception of the joint compound from the paper. It ended up containing 2% chrysotile asbestos.
The MIC chromitite deposits have received even lesser attention than those occurring at Shurugwi, and thus, are the focus of this investigation. ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT 3 The MIC is host to the second most important chrysotile asbestos occurrence in Zimbabwe after the Zvishavane ultramafic complex (e.g., Laubscher, 1968; Wilson, 1968a, b).
