While blue asbestos was used in some applications, the vast majority of asbestos in Australian homes is chrysolite.

There were (and are) still many mesothelioma and asbestos deaths in tradesmen building with chrysolite containing products here, as well as people whose only known exposure was renovation of houses containing it.
