Vintage film depicting asbestos mining and milling operations in the mountainous area of Cassiar, British Columbia, Canada. Rare footage shows scenes of how chrysotile asbestos mineral fiber was produced and tested for worldwide distribution for various asbestos products.
My dad still is and he worked in the mill :-)

I wonder how many of these featured workers are alive today.
