    asbestos?
    A Chrysotile Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Amosite Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Crocidolite Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Hematite Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Asbestos refers to a group of six naturally occurring silicate minerals with fibrous structures: chrysotile, amosite, crocidolite, tremolite, anthophyllite, and actinolite. These are divided into serpentine (e.g., chrysotile) and amphibole types. Hematite, however, is an iron oxide mineral and is not a form of asbestos.
