Abstract:
The experiments on animals studied mutagenic activity of copper-nickel sulfide ore dust. Micronucleus test proved mild mutagenic activity of the ore under study. Chronic inhalation of the dust induced malignancies (mostly lung tumors and leukoses) in 52% of the experimental Wistar rats, that could be caused by dissolution of the dust components in the body fluids.
