Black lung disease is associated with the coal mining industry. The disease is the result of prolonged breathing of coal dust. Coal dust contains silica and carbon. These components of coal dust are what cause black lung disease. About 1 in 20 coal miners have evidence of black lung disease which is a chronic disease for which there is no known treatment.

Coal miners are associated with black lung disease.
Black lung, as the name suggests, is a disease of the lungs. The lungs are located within the chest (or in more technical terms, the thorax).
Black lung disease: A chronic occupational lung disease contracted by the prolonged breathing of coal mine dust. The silica and carbon in the coal dust cause black lung disease. About one of every 20 miners studied in the US has X-ray evidence of black lung disease, a form of pneumoconiosis.

Pneumoconiosis is an occupational lung disease caused by the inhalation of dust. Such as Black Lung.
Black lung disease was first reported back in 1822. Doctors were under the impression that the the symptoms from black lung disease were asthma related. and called it miners asthma. However when In 1831, Upon discovering the blackening of miners lungs the term black lung disease was created. this term was replaced once again more then a hundred years later in 1942 to "pneumoconiosis" by British medical professionals working on understanding the dust diseases that affected coal miners. Black lung disease can be the result of inhaling coal dust. Modern medical terminology for this disease is "pneumoconiosis",
Black lung disease frequently does not show any symptoms. When it does, the common ones are shortness of breath, severe cough, and difficulty breathing.
