In my part of the country (Georgia), any suspected asbestos material has to be removed by specialists and taken to a hazmat dump. When I needed to do some remodeling in a rental building a while back, there were some floor tiles that were of "unknown" material. So, instead of removing them, I had the contractor seal them in place and put new tiles over them. The subfloor is concrete so there is not much likelihood of any problems from below. Hopefully, the new floor will last another 50 years and the next owner will have to decide what to do with them!
