Juniper Publishers- Open Access Journal of Environmental Sciences & Natural Resources Genotype and Environment Interaction Determines the Yield Potential of a Crop under Changing Climate Authored by Kwata Maphuti Georgina Abstract The physical characteristics and composition of dust material are essential in the study of soil contamination. The aim of the study is to determine the possible asbestos contamination in dust samples collected both outside and inside of homes villages that are close proximity to former asbestos mining areas. Asbestos is a silicate mineral that was mined in South Africa, but its mining was ceased in 2002 due to human health effects associated with inhalation. In January 2017 outside surface dust samples were collected in yards with a brush and plastic dust pan, sieved on site with 1.8 mm pore size stainless steel sieve to remove large particles and put into a labeled zipper plastic for storage. Trapped dust samples were collected on pieces of...
