The site has been mined over two decades, and the earliest mineral material contract on record is from April 2003 for 100,000 tons of crushed, decorative rock issued to Evan and Stacey White. A subsequent contract for 50,000 tons was issued to the same operators in July 2009. Over the life of these two contracts, approximately 8 acres of public lands managed by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Lake Havasu Field Office (LHFO) was excavated and mined to produce the existing footprint of the quarry seen at the site today. The site has sat idle with some leftover equipment (scale and water tank) and stockpiles since 2015 when the contract expired. No new mining has taken place since then. In 2019, a contract for the removal of the remaining stockpiles of 1-2-inch crushed marble and fines was issued to Glenn Webster, the current operator. Mr. Webster has submitted a request to crush new material from this site in order to provide for the growing demand of construction in the area. 1.1.1 Location of Proposed Action: The Salome marble quarry is situated in the Little Harquahala Mountains in southcentral Arizona within the Basin and Range physiographic province (refer to maps 1 and 2 in Appendix C). The existing quarry footprint and proposed expansion area encompasses approximately 15 acres within T. 4 N., R. 13 W., Section 28, Gila & Salt River Meridian. The site is approximately eight miles south of Salome Arizona, and 8 miles north of Interstate 10. Hovater Road connects the town of Salome and Interstate 10 to the quarry site. The nearest major city to the Project is Phoenix Arizona, which is approximately 85 miles east. 1.1.2 Preparing Office: BLM, Colorado River District, LHFO 1.1.3 Applicant Name: Glenn Webster 1.2 Purpose and Need for Action The purpose of the BLM action is to respond to Glenn Webster’s request for mineral material disposal at the Salome Marble Quarry and expand the current pit boundaries to allow for expansion to meet local demands for marble used to make concrete in the area. The need for the action is established by the BLM’s responsibility under the Materials Act of 1947, the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976, and Title 43 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Subpart 3600. 1.3 Decision to be Made The decision to be made by the BLM authorized officer would be to either: (A) approve of the disposal of mineral materials and host a competitive sale for the material to be mined, or (B) deny the disposal of mineral materials located at the Salome marble quarry. If the disposal is approved, BLM would determine what terms and conditions would apply to contract. Page 1 1.4 Conformance with Applicable Land Use Plans Lake Havasu Field Office Resource Management Plan, Date Approved: May 2007 The proposed action and alternatives described below are in conformance with the Lake Havasu Field Office Resource Management Plan (RMP) (BLM 2007), page(s) #43, Management Action/Decision #MI-9: The total area open to mineral material disposal is 1,044,027 acres, and 299,297 acres are restricted from mineral development as shown in Map 16. 1.5 Relationship to Statutes, Regulations, Other Plans and Environmental Analysis Documents The Proposed Action and Alternatives are consistent with Federal laws and regulations, plans, programs and policies of affiliated tribes, other Federal agencies, State and local governments including, but not limited to, the following: CFR parts 3600, the Materials Act of 1947, and United States Code 601-604. CHAPTER 2 PROPOSED ACTION AND ALTERNATIVES 2.1 No Action Alternative Under the no action alternative, the BLM would deny the disposal of any additional mineral materials at the Salome Marble Quarry. The LHFO would not conduct a competitive bid sale of the material, and there would be no further expansion at the project site. The current contract issued to the current operator for removal of the existing crushed stockpiles would be the last mineral material contract at the Salome Marble Quarry. Once the stockpiles are removed, the site would be reclaimed. Leftover infrastructure from previous contracts including a water tank, scale, entrance gate, and sign would need to be removed and the water well onsite would need to be capped and abandoned in accordance with state regulations. 2.2 Proposed Action Due to the local demand from agriculture and solar field construction, the current proponent has submitted a request to remove additional materials from the Salome Marble Quarry. Based on this request the BLM is proposing to dispose of an additional 8 acres of mineral material adjacent to the existing quarry to allow for future mining and concrete operations in this area to meet these local demands (refer to maps 3 and 4 in Appendix C). The contract would be advertised as a competitive sale for 50,000 tons of marble and could be renewed on an as-needed basis. To authorize a competitive sale of mineral materials to interested parties in La Paz County, Arizona, an advertisement would be posted in the local newspaper pursuant to 43 CFR 3602.42. The material of interest is marble that could be mined onsite at the existing quarry on public lands. Some infrastructure is already in place from a previous operation including an entrance gate, scale, 8,000-gallon water tank, and water well that could be adopted by a future operator (refer to photographs in Appendix D). Water for processing, washing material, and dust abatement would be drawn from the existing well onsite. Other equipment for crushing, sorting, and hauling material would be brought in from applicants bidding on the material. A valuation of the material would be conducted to establish a Fair Market Value royalty, and a minimum bid necessary to hold a competitive sale. The Arizona Mineral Materials Commodity Study and Analysis (December 2018) would be used

Stones vary in hardness and therefore in their ability to survive satisfactorily outdoors in cemeteries, as well as their ability to withstand cleaning or restoration. The Mohs Scale of Mineral Hardness, created in 1812, establishes talc as the softest mineral material and diamond as the hardest. There is no need to determine the exact hardness of a stone you are working on. However, seeing how some common cemetery materials rank on the Mohs Scale can guide your choice of the best methods for working with them: Talc (see "soapstone" below) Marble Sandstone Granite Diamond 1 3-4 5 7-8 10 If identifying the type of stone is difficult, but will be important to a cemetery preservation project, referring to a stone/mineral field guide is recommended, or consulting with a geologist or other expert. Marker Material Descriptions MARBLE Marble has been used for a great many markers in historic cemeteries in Georgia. The state's marble industry dates back to the late 1830s, when outcroppings of surface marble were discovered in north Georgia. Quarrying began, and markers were carved and sold throughout the area. The Georgia marble industry still thrives today. Several different types of stone that can be polished are called marble. A true marble, though, is a metamorphic rock made up of calcium carbonate, traces of silica and iron oxides; it is rather soft and easily carved.

  • Short Notice to Quarrying Sector
    DRAFT REPORT STATE-OF-THE-ART: ORNAMENTAL STONE QUARRYING IN EUROPE Nicos Arvantides Tom Heldal 1 OSNET quarrying sector Nicos Arvantides Institute of Geology and Mineral exploration (IGME) 1. Fragon str. 54626 Thessaloniki Greece [email protected] Tom Heldal Geological Survey of Norway (NGU) N-7491 Trondheim Norway [email protected] Preface This report is an attempt to summarize some characteristics of the ornamental stone quarrying industry throughout Europe and underline some challenges that this sector is facing. Furthermore, it seeks to highlight some of the most important innovative technologies and methods contributing to improve the viability and sustainability of ornamental stone quarrying. In addition to quarrying itself, the report also deals with other important aspects directly relevant to quarrying – such as exploration, some environmental issues, management of deposits and handling and use of waste rock. For other aspects related to the ornamental stone production, including environmental, the work by the other sectors within OSNET is recommended. These are: Processing, Stone characterization, Tools and equipment, Risk assessment, safety and environment and Technology transfer. Ornamental stone quarrying in Europe is characterized by a great variation in traditions, extraction methods and, not at least, rock types. To give a complete picture of everything happening within the sector would demand far more pages and time than available, but we hope that we have not forgotten too much. The members of the OSNET quarrying sector come from Greece, Italy, Portugal, Sweden, Finland and Norway. Clearly, the report will be "coloured" by examples and case studies from these countries, but we hope – and believe - they have a more general validity.

    Goeie foto MARBLE MOSAIC Installing and treatment guide for Marble Mosaic and other Natural stone Designtegels.nl INSTALLING AND TREATMENT GUIDE Type: Marble mosaic tiles are tiles made of natural stone such as marble, whether or not finished by polishing. Production is (partly) manual. Materials: Natural stone, marble Characteristics: Marble is a natural product and is extracted in countries such as Italy and Turkey. Large blocks or plates are processed into smaller mosaic shapes, usually glued onto mats. Variants: There are numerous variants that are often characterized by color and / or shape. Applicability: Inside, outside, walls, floors. Extra attention: Our mosaic tiles made from natural stone such as marble are more sensitive than other tile types. Be careful with acids or caustic cleaning agents. The processing of mats works differently than the processing of whole tiles, which is why mosaic tiles must be placed with extra attention and preferably by someone with experience. The step-by-step plan and advice may differ per space or area of application.​​ Below we give our advice for the most common placement of our mosaic tiles. Also read the important tips at the bottom of the step-by-step plan and contact us if you have any questions. What do you need to install mosaic tiles: - Primer - Flexible tile adhesive - Flexible grout - 2 mm tile spacers - Angle grinder or water-cooled tile saw - Joint trowel, glue tub, glue comb 6 or 8mm, depending on the mosaic MARBLE MOSAIC - Azule Cement Stain Remover (cleaning agent) 1 - Bucket and sponge, wash-in set STEP-BY-STEP PLAN Before you start tiling, make a plan of same joint width.

  • What Is Non-Explosive Demolition Powder?
    WHAT IS NON-EXPLOSIVE DEMOLITION POWDER? Non-Explosive demolition powder is a soundless, non-explosive and safe demolition agent, which is quite different from ordinary demolition agents such as explosives and dangerous materials. It does not cause any explosion, noise, ground vibration, gas, dust or any other environmental pollution when used properly. It is a non-toxic powder consisting of oxides of calcium, silicon and aluminum. The chemical composition of Crack Powder is a powder consisting of an inorganic compound made mainly of a special kind of silicate and an organic compound. Crack Powder does not contain any harmful components. It provides the most technically suitable and cost-effective solution in restricted demolition of rock and concrete structures where nearby structures must be protected from shock waves generated by explosives. Explosives are expensive due to long operating times, special transport, storage and handling precautions, and the need to comply with public safety regulations. As requirements for demolishing rock and reinforced concrete in construction increase in tight quarters, the use of explosives and explosive agents is becoming more restricted as far as safety and environmental pollution problems are concerned. Crack Powder is the solution. Marble, granite, limestone, plain concrete, reinforced concrete, boulders, and ledge are fractured overnight without noise, vibration, or flying debris.

Marble powder is one of the materials which severalty affects the environment and health problems. It is produced from sawing, shaping, and polishing process. This research aims to study the effect of using marble powder as partially replace of cement on the properties of concrete. The influence of using marble powder on the behavior of reinforced concrete slabs is also investigated. The main variable taken into consideration is the percentage of marble powder as partial replacement of cement content in concrete mixes. The experimental results showed that, using definite amount of marble powder replacement of cement content increases the workability, compressive strength and tensile strength. Using marble powder enhanced also the structural performance of the tested slabs as it increased the stiffness and the ultimate strength compared to the control slabs.
