On over 4,500 acres lie more than 100 years of reserves of the highest dimensional and cut-stone quality stone. A five-year forward production plan is maintained for each quarry to access its reserves and provide the flexibility required to meet customer needs. We are able to improve yield and quarry over 1.5 million cubic feet of high quality limestone per year.
The quarries from which Indiana Limestone Company have extensive reserves include Dark Hollow, Adams National, and Baalbec quarries. These quarries are in addition to two of our most active and well known quarries, namely Empire/PM&B and Victor. Both of these have been the exclusive sources of stone for such notable buildings as: the Empire State Building, National Construction Center, Mississippi State Judicial Building, Ronald Reagan Building, and the International Trade Center in Washington D.C. Proper planning, the development of new sawing and quarrying techniques, and the use of available technology allow us to maximize the usable stone of ten quarries.
