Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book details the dolomite and limestone resources found in Grundy and Kendall counties, Illinois. The author details the depth, thickness, and distribution of these resources based on well data and outcrops. It proves helpful to those interested in the shallow occurrences of dolomite and limestone, even if the rocks may be considerably deeper than is now regarded as within the range of depth of economical quarrying or underground mining. The data available regarding the rocks do not permit accurate determinations of the physical and chemical characteristics which might prescribe their potential uses. However, deposits of stone which might be suitable for road material and agricultural limestone are available. Less common, but within the limits of possibility, are deposits of stone suitable for concrete aggregate and railroad ballast. High-purity dolomite may be present locally. The weathered character of many deposits and the possibility of groundwater in all of the dolomite and dolomitic limestone formations are problems that affect their potential uses. Test drilling is requisite for a thorough evaluation of the resources. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780365767527_0
