Present standards for the evaluation of the silicosis hazard involved in breathing dusty air call for determinations of the free silica content of dusts and dust-producing materials. A method is described for accomplishing these determinations when sili-cate minerals are present. The silicate minerals are dissolved by heating the sample of dust with phos-phoric acid. After dilution of the phosphoric acid with water, the residue of free silica is separated by filtration and weighed. A heating period of 12 to 20 minutes suffices to dissolve most of the silicate min-erals commonly present in industrial dusts. The method is adaptable to the rapid determination of quartz in a wide variety of rocks, ores, clays, and industrial dusts, and requires only the simplest of laboratory equipment for its execution.
