A white paper by John W. Kelse, corporate industrial hygienist at R. T. Vanderbilt Company, updated April 2007, on the tremolitic talc the company mines in upstate New York. The author contends the talc's tremolite is nonasbestiform and that asbestos is not a constituent. It reviews lung cancer, mesothelioma and animal studies and OSHA's 1992 decision on nonasbestiform amphiboles. Appended are RJ Lee Group analyses for Vanderbilt (1992, 2000), Kelse and C. Sheldon Thompson's 1989 journal article, pages of NIOSH's 1980 talc report and a 1967 journal page.
