A majority of mines operate using dry mining that generates a large amount of residual dust. This is compounded by a lack of protective gear for miners exposing them to inhalation of fine silica particles. A shift towards wet mining which reduces the amount of dust is a relatively cost efficient means of curbing the hazard of silicosis --so far a disease with no known cure.
