Production of Eruptive Technical Stone in Croatia

The Croatian non-metals industry comprises exploration, exploitation and processing of non-metallic mineral raw materials. By beneficiation of these rock standard stone sizes for the production of concrete, asphalt masses, of supporting layers in road works and railroad ballast were obtained. In most technical stone quarries, rock deposits of a carbonaceous structure are exploited, whereas just some few quarries are exploiting rock deposits of a siliceous structure. An overview of eruptive technical stone production in the Republic of Croatia is given in this paper. The technology of stone exploitation and dressing are shown on quarry Jelenje Vode.
