Vulcan Materials Company also mines for non-construction aggregates. Our quarry in Brooksville, Florida produces high calcium and magnesium stone, also known as a chemical stone. It is also used in a variety of environmental and industrial applications. Examples of these applications include water treatment, flue gas desulfurization, and ferrous metal productions. Chemical stone is used to remove undesirable products from stack exhausts at coal-fired utilities. It is also used in everyday products such as paint, rubber, carpet, tile, make-up, plastics, paper, roofing, toothpaste, and digestion aids.
