 Nickel subsulfide (CASRN 12035-72-2), IRIS, Environmental Protection Agency
At Copper Cliff and Port Colborne, Ontario, populations showing elevated lung and nasal cancer worked in what were considered the dustier areas of the refineries.
The high cancer response in the electrolytic tankhouse workers of this plant (SMR for lung and nasal cancer are 550 and 2600, respectively) is the one apparent contradiction to the hypothesis that the pyrometallurgical process and nickel subsulfide exposures are responsible for the observed cancer increases.
In the electrolytic tankhouse, workers are exposed primarily to nickel sulfate, nickel metal, copper and nickel oxides, and nickel chloride.

 Rural History | University of Guelph
Copper Cliff was a company-owned town from 1886 to 1973 at which time it was annexed by the City of Sudbury, and the company began to sell its land and housing within the town.
When the company perceived the benefits of its rental real estate to be diminishing, it adopted a policy of divestment and sold its non-industrial property.
Several factors were involved in the decision to divest, foremost among which was the introduction in the Sudbury District by the Ontario Government of a number of co-operative social and environmental programmes to which the company was obliged to contribute through its towns, with contributions being based on an assessment the company could not control.

 Nickel refinery dust (no CASRN), IRIS, Environmental Protection Agency
While the dust levels and lung cancer relative risks were much higher in the two latter refineries, all dose-response relationships appear linear, and the tumor type and sites are the same, indicating that the functional relationship spans a broad range of nickel exposures.
Data sets from nickel refineries in Huntington, WV (Enterline and Marsh, 1982), Copper Cliff, Ontario (Chovil et al., 1981), Clydach, Wales (Peto et al., 1984), and Kristiansand, Norway (Magnus et al., 1982) provide information available for choice of model or for separation of risk by the type of nickel exposure.
The dose-response curves for nasal cancer were not used for risk estimation because nasal cancer risk from nickel is thought to be an occupational hazard associated only with the pyrometallurgical process, and these tumors are not found in the general public to the same extent as lung tumors.

Tailings from the nickel refinery in Copper Cliff, Ontario, consist of fine silicates mixed with a variable amount of conductive and magnetic minerals mainly associated with sulphides and iron oxides.
Subsequent oxidation of sulphide-rich phases within the tailings results in the formation of an acidic leachate that may contain significant concentrations of trace metals.
It is proposed that combining information derived from airborne electromagnetic and magnetic surveys can provide an indication of metallic sulphide distribution.
