Cement Plant Raw Material Use and Siting Guidance
The United States Geological Survey notes that making Portland cement consumes about 460 pounds of limestone and 150 pounds of clay per barrel. A 1,000 barrel per day plant would exhaust roughly 6,000,000 cubic feet of limestone and 2,000,000 cubic feet of clay annually, suggesting siting only where at least twenty years of raw material are available. A 1,000 barrel plant would thus require about 20,000,000 cubic feet of limestone and 6,000,000 cubic feet of clay for its reserves.
