Deebie got it. My only experience with it is in the mines near Lovelock, NV. It is a fine silica based powder - sort of like breathing powdered glass.
No, not a miner but the tailings piles are full of fossils. In fact, diatomaceous earth is fossils. Wear your air mask.
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and proclaiming...."WOW What a Ride!!" -Mark Frost
