Asbestos in soil

Asbestos is a mineral that is widely used in the construction industry for its heat-resistant and insulating properties. Asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) are commonly found in buildings constructed or renovated between the 1940s and 1990s. However, asbestos can also be found in the ground, affecting building sites where old buildings may have been demolished, or areas near a former asbestos factory, mine, or landfill.

Asbestos in the ground poses a serious risk to human health, particularly when construction works or excavation occurs. When asbestos fibres enter the air, they can be inhaled, leading to serious lung diseases such as mesothelioma, asbestosis and lung cancer.

Soil may be contaminated with asbestos due to:

• Accidental dumping of ACMs
• Weathering and erosion of ACMs
• Leaking from illegal or poorly regulated landfill sites
• Naturally occurring asbestos deposits
