Signs and Symptoms of Overexposure: HLTH HAZ: OR OTHER FACTORS. THERE IS NO
EVIDENCE THAT IRON ORE DUST OR FERRIC OXIDE INFLUENCES INCIDENCE OF CANCERS AT
SITES OTHER THAN LUNGS. INHAL: ACUTE: METAL FUME FEVER, AN INFLUENZA-LIKE
ILLNESS, MAY OCCUR DUE TO INHAL OF FRESHLY FORM ED IRON OXIDE FUME WHICH IS
COMPOSED OF PARTICLES SIZED BELOW (SEE SUPP DATA)
Medical Conditions Aggravated by Overexposure: NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.
