Authored by Anthony Joseph Lanza and Edwin Higgins, this preliminary report sheds light on the prevalence of pulmonary diseases within the mining communities of the Joplin District and examines the correlation between these diseases and the inhalation of rock dust in the mines.This study provides valuable insights into the occupational hazards of mining during this era, contributing to a greater understanding of the long-term health consequences experienced by miners. It serves as an important historical document, highlighting the need for improved safety regulations and preventative measures in the mining industry.
