Asbestos Mine
 Recently, the Scientist and Researchers have proved that the asbestos related diseases like asbestosis, lung cancer and malignant mesothelioma affects the people who are living within the ten miles of the asbestos mine. Asbestos mine are nothing but the natural deposits of asbestos materials in public and are very hazardous. Scientists have studied medical records and death certificates from people who lived in towns located within ten miles of the asbestos mine. These studies have revealed some dreadful facts about the risks of asbestos cancer for people in the area. The study has found that people who live close to the mine have as much as a twelve-fold increase in the likelihood they will pass away from an asbestos-related disease. |

On one hand that seems like a long distance away to be affected by asbestos, however, it's odd that they would build homes near an asbestos mine. You would think an asbestos mine should be located somewhere out in the middle of nowhere where only people who are fully protected could come close to it. I would probably contact a mesothelioma asbestos attorney to tell me what steps I should take if I got a disease related to it, and if I have any rights in compensation.
