Updating “Characteristics of respirable dust in eight Appalachian coal mines: A dataset including particle size and mineralogy distributions, and metal and trace element mass concentrations” with expanded data to cover a total of 25 US mines

A total of 171 sets respirable dust samples were collected from 25 underground coal mines in several regions of the United States. One sample from each set was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX) to determine particle size and mineralogy distr...
