Anthracosis, often associated with coal dust exposure, can occur due to the inhalation of various particulate matter, including asbestos fibers. Asbestos exposure leads to the accumulation of fibrous material in the lungs, which can cause inflammation and scarring, contributing to respiratory issues.
