coal dust
Black powder particles
Coal dust is fine powite coal.
It accumulates in mines, around coal-fired power plants, and wherever coal is handled or transported.
Coal dust poses serious health risks when inhaled, causing black lung disease in miners.
It's also highly combustible—coal dust explosions have caused some of the deadliest mining disasters in history.
