Abstract. A quarry is an area from which rocks such as marble, limestone, and granite are extracted for industrial use. Once depleted of their desired resources, quarries are frequently abandoned. The resulting gaping holes can fill with water and form dangerous quarry lakes while others are turned into unsightly landfills.
Tours run from May 14 to Oct. 31, Monday through Saturday. One popular combination is for folks to visit the quarry, followed by a trip to the Vermont Granite Museum and finally, nearby 53 acre Hope Cemetery, which only allows monuments, sculptures and artistry fashioned out of the Rock of Ages Blue Gray granite.
Here are some apparent reasons you need to avoid living near a quarry. 1. Diseases. People living near quarries are diagnosed with numerous health conditions that are believed to originate from the quarry sites. When rocks are broken down, they create thin invisible dust particles, which are inhaled.
