Analysis of respirable dust exposure data collected at a Zambian copper mine between 2017 and 2022
Mine workers are occupationally exposed to respirable dust, which can cause irreversible lung diseases and controlling exposure concentrations to as low as reasonably practicable is, therefore, essential. To implement exposure reduction strategies and adequately manage exposure to hazardous chemical...
