Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that has had many commercial uses during the last century, so it can be found in many building materials and other objects. Excessive exposure through inhalation can result in asbestosis, lung cancer, or mesothelioma (another kind of cancer). Asbestos seems to produce cancer through the physical interaction of its fibrous structure with living cells.
