Is this an Asbestos fibro?

Page 1 of 1
Hey guys, I went down to our subfloor yesterday and discovered this little piece among the rubbles:

Just wondering if there might be asbestos in there or not as we're really worried at the moment. It seem to have a honeycomb/circular shape on top but have mostly worn off.

The previous owner did a renovation to the bathrooms and kitchen and the lazy tradies just dumped a lot of construction wastes down there. (bricks, tiles, timbers etc.)
You will get a pretty good indication of you know the age of the rubble. If the material predates 1985 it is very likely to be Asbestos but the only sure way to know is lab test.
Thank you for your advice, I'll collect the sample and send it for testing

What you are looking at is fibrous plaster, true gypsum, it is cast on horizontal beds with fibers included to give strength. I has no Asbestos in it. Houses before 1985…
