Tarmac Buxton Lime quarry blast

A blast filmed at Tarmac Buxton quarry.

Limestone is brought from the quarry and tipped by the trucks into a large primary crusher. The primary crusher works on the gyratory principle and is capable of crushing up to 3,000 tonnes an hour.

A complex series of conveyor belts then carry the partly crushed rock to the secondary crushing unit which further reduces the stone and it is then screened into a wide range of different sizes from 125mm kiln stone down to dust.
