Composition / Information on Ingredients
Chemical components, concentration ranges, and hazardous substance identification
| Chemical Name | CAS Number | Concentration | Hazardous |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dolomite | 16389-88-1 | 50 - 90% | No |
| Magnesium Carbonate | 546-93-0 | 50% | No |
| Calcium Oxide | 1305-78-8 | 1% | No |

These materials are mined from the earth. Trace amounts of naturally occurring elements might be detected during chemical analysis of these materials.
Notes
There are no additional ingredients present which, within the current knowledge of the supplier and in the concentrations applicable, are classified as hazardous to health or the environment and hence require reporting in this section.
First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Move to fresh air. Call a physician if symptoms develop or persist.
Symptoms: discomfort in the chest, shortness of breath, and coughing.
Wash off with soap and water. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists.
Immediately flush with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Hold eyelids apart. Remove contacts is present and easy to do. Occasionally lift the eyelid(s) to ensure thorough rinsing. Beyond flushing, do not attempt to remove material from the eye(s). Get medical attention if irritation develops or persists.
Rinse mouth and drink plenty of water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention.
Immediate Medical Attention
Get medical attention if irritation develops or persists. Call a physician if symptoms develop or persist. Keep victim under observation.
Medical Treatment
Provide general supportive measures and treat symptomatically.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Not flammable. Use fire-extinguishing media appropriate for surrounding materials.
None known.
No unusual fire or explosion hazards noted. Not a combustible dust.
Firefighter Protection
Use protective equipment appropriate for surrounding materials. No specific precautions.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Wear appropriate protective equipment and clothing during clean-up of materials that contain or may liberate dust. Do not dry sweep or use compressed air for clean-up. Wetting of spilled material and/or use of respiratory protective equipment may be necessary.
Avoid discharge of fine particulate matter into drains or water courses.

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and understood. Keep formation of airborne dusts to a minimum. Do not breathe dust. Avoid prolonged exposure. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment.
Avoid dust formation or accumulation.
Observe good industrial hygiene practices. Promptly remove dusty clothing and launder before reuse.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Good general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour indoors) should be used. Ventilation rates should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level.
Use personal protective equipment as required.
Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles).
When handling or performing work that produces dust or respirable crystalline silica in excess of applicable exposure limits, wear a NIOSH-approved respirator that is properly fitted and is in good condition. Respirators must be used in accordance with all applicable workplace regulations.
Use personal protective equipment as required.
