Our limestone is of organic origin.
There are four principal uses for our limestone:
Agriculture - Limestone is an important source of calcium for the poultry and cattle industries. It is also used to correct soil acidity and as a nutrient that improves crop yields.
Environmental - The power industry uses limestone to reduce sulfur emissions into the atmosphere, preventing acid rain. Limestone is also used to clean up contaminated soil.
Glass, Roofing & Farming
Blue Mountain Minerals helps many farmers and businesses produce a variety of products at the lowest possible prices, while creating thousands of jobs in their communities. In addition to hundreds of farmers that we help, we supply limestone to eight glass manufacturing plants and five roofing companies.
Safeguarding Air Quality
Power plants rely on Blue Mountain Minerals as a local, reliable and inexpensive source of limestone to keep power plants operating within their emission guidelines by reducing sulfur emissions and preventing the formation of acid rain. Blue Mountain Minerals supplies limestone to fifteen power plants.
Blue Mountain limestone helps Northern and Central California businesses generate millions of dollars in products and wages every year.
