It was used to an urban refuse landfill turned from a limestone quarry. Designers preserved some of the limestone landscape and built a park with oriental landscape features by simulating the karst landform using materials like concrete. This park has become a world-famous case in the construction and design history of a park …

An experiment to suggest a technique for rehabilitation of a hard-limestone quarry floor in northern England was carried into its seventh year (see also Dixon & Hambler, 1984).The stress-tolerant grass Festuca rubra var. fallax Hack, cultivar Cascade proved suitable as a primary colonist, especially when sown onto rubble treated with a …

Home - Pikeview Quarry Reclamation. Pikeview Quarry is a former limestone mine overlooking northwest Colorado Springs, Colorado. The mine operated continuously from 1903-2018, providing essential raw materials for the concrete that built the Olympic City.

The assessment of rock slope for quarry reclamation is crucial because quarry sites are exposed to geohazard events, particularly slope failure and rockfalls. Therefore, this study was conducted to assess the stability and potential failure of three rock slopes, namely GG1, GG2, and GG3, at an abandoned limestone quarry site in Kinta …
