What is another word for miner lungs?
Pronunciation: [mˈa͡ɪnə lˈʌŋz] (IPA) 
Miner lungs are often associated with a variety of respiratory conditions that arise from prolonged exposure to dust and other hazardous materials during mining activities. Synonyms for this debilitating condition include black lung, coal workers' pneumoconiosis, anthracosis, and silicosis. Black lung, as the name suggests, is characterized by the accumulation of coal dust particles in the lungs, causing damage to the respiratory system. Coal workers' pneumoconiosis and anthracosis are also associated with coal mining, wherein the inhalation of coal dust and fumes causes lung tissue scarring. Silicosis, on the other hand, results from exposure to silica dust, which is primarily found in silica mines and can lead to fibrosis and other health problems.
