This directory lists the companies' names, their commodity and location, for those companies involved in mineral and earth resource extraction in Florida. The directory will be useful to industry, state and local governmental agencies, geologists, and the citizens of the State. The Survey's intention is to help the reader realize the economic impact mining has in Florida, and its importance to our way of life. Part II of this circular, entitled Geology, Mining and Reclamation at the Radar Hill Quarry, Citrus Country, Florida, is the result of interagency cooperation between the Florida Geological Survey, the U.S. Forest Service, and Florida Rock Industries, Inc. This section reviews the geology and mine development of an economic limestone deposit in the Withlacoochee State Forest.

Spencer, P. G. #319 INTRODUCTION The primary intent of this publication is to list all those companies (other than oil and gas operators) involved with the extraction and/or processing of industrial minerals in Florida. Information relating to oil and ga$ production in Florida can be found in the Florida Geological Survey Information Circulars No. 104 and 106. The directory lists the name, address and location of each industry under the commodity that is mined. When possible the complete location is given as Township, Range and Section. However, the term multiple, which occurs in the column marked section, denotes that a particular mine encompasses more than two sections. The remark "not available" is also used when a location was not found. Table 1 lists all the abbreviations used in this text. Table 2 is a listing of all commodities by county. These commodities may be mined or processed in the designated county. Shell material (lithified or unlithified) and coquina have been incorporated into a single designation, limestone. The Florida Geological Survey has used numerous sources in compiling the directory. This office will appreciate notification of any corrections, additions or deletions for future editions. You may contact the Florida Geological Survey at 903 W. Tennessee Street, Tallahassee, Florida 32304-7795, (904) 488-9380.

William Yon2, P.G. #122, William R. Waite3 and Charles T. Williams4, P.G. #343 INTRODUCTION Understanding the geology of an area can pro- vide basic information on the deposit to be mined, possible problem areas associated with mining, and data for planning of reclamation activities. Planning for reclamation involves data compilation, which includes inventorying the material to be mined, soil types, determination of the quantity of overburden available for reclamation, and the gen- eral relief of the mining site. The purpose of this report is to discuss the ge- ology, mining and reclamation practices at the Flor- ida Rock Industries, Inc., Radar Hill Quarry. The quarry is located in the southeastern part of the Withlacoochee State Forest in the Citrus tract, Cit- rus County, Florida (Figure 1). In 1958, the United States government trans- ferred the management of the Withlacoochee State Forest to the State of Florida, Division of Forestry. The U.S. government retained the mineral rights in the Forest. Florida Rock Industries obtained a lease from the United States Government to mine the area in 1965. The leased area is irregular in shape and contains 671 acres in Sections 3, 4, 9, and 10, Township 21 South, Range 19 East, Citrus County, Florioa. In the government lease agreement with Florida Rock Industries, Inc., it was required that they have approval of an operating plan for mining the site before beginning the operation. On August 13, 1973, Florida Rock Industries, Inc., submitted an operating plan to the U.S. Forest Service for ap- proval. The final environmental statement contain- ing the operating plan was made available to the Council on Environmental Quality and the public on November 18,1974 (Pridgeon Engineering Co., Inc., 1974). The plan of operation describes pre- mining preparation, mining, and reclamation. METRIC CONVERSION FACTORS In order to prevent the duplication of English and metric units in this report the following con- version factors are provided. MULTIPLY feet miles BY 0.3048 1.609 TO OBTAIN meters kilometers GEOMORPHOLOGY The Radar Hill Quarry is located on the Brooksville Ridge which is part of the Central Highlands geomorphic province (White, 1970). The Brooksville Ridge is composed of sands, sandy clays and clays overlying limestones. The Brooksville Ridge stands out in sharp contrast to the plains flanking it on the west and east. Radar Hill has elevations iup to 190 feet above mean sea level and is surrounded by sinkholes and sinkhole lakes (Figure 2). GEOLOGY OF THE RADAR HILL SUWANNEE LIMESTONE DEPOSIT INTRODUCTION The limestone mined at the Radar Hill Quarry is removed from the Suwannee Limestone deposited during the Oligocene Epoch. This deposit is an extension of the Suwannee Limestone mined in Hernando County to the south of the quarry. Several geologic factors affect the availability of the limestone resources from the Radar Hill area. These factors are: thickness and composition of overburden, distribution, topography, lithology, and thickness of the deposit.

Pre-mining topography of the area at and around the Radar Hill Quarry (modified from USGS 7-1/2 minute Brooksville NW, Florida quadrangle, 1954). ;~ F 9 I | INFORMATION CIRCULAR NO. 105 DISTRIBUTION AND TOPOGRAPHY The elevation and distribution of the Suwannee Limestone in northern Hernando County is variable (Figure 3). Regional cross sections A-A' and B-B' (Figure 4) and those at the Radar Hill Quarry (Fig- ure 5a) indicate the top of the Suwannee Limestone surface is irregular and that the entire unit overlies the Ocala Group limestones of Eocene age. The contour map of the top of the Suwannee Limestone (Figure 3) in the northern portion of Hernando County, shows that quarries are generally asso- ciated with highs on the limestone surface. The map also shows that the top of the limestone sur- face occurs at approximately 150 feet above mean sea level. Although a contour map of the top of the Suwannee Limestone is not available for the Radar Hill Quarry and vicinity, diagrammatic cross sec- tions C-C' and D-D' (Figure 5b) indicate the top of the limestone deposit occurs at or near 150 feet above mean sea level. The limestone deposit at the Radar Hill Quarry in Citrus County is believed to be part of the Suwannee Limestone that extends southward through Hernando and into Pasco County (Figure 6). Yon and Hendry (1972) note that the Suwannee Limestone in Hernando and Pasco Counties may be utilized for concrete aggregate (Figure 6). OVERBURDEN THICKNESS AND COMPOSITION Unconsolidated sands and clays cover the Radar Hill area. These sediments belong to the Hawthorn Group (Scott, 1988) or to various Pliocene to Hol- ocene age deposits which are undifferentiated in this report. The thickness of these sands and clays is variable and is generally reported to range from one to 15-feet thick with an average thickness of nine feet (Pridgeon Engineering Co., Inc., 1974). However, near the top of Radar Hill, the sediments increase to approximately 40-feet thick. As shown on cross sections C-C' and D-D' (Figure 5b) the limestone deposit has an irregular surface and, in general, the Hawthorn Group is thickest at the top of high areas. LITHOLOGY The Suwannee Limestone deposit at the Radar Hill Quarry can be described as a very pale orange, sandy, slightly silty and clayey, fossiliferous, par- tially recrystallized to recrystallized limestone. The rocks exposed in the face of the Radar Hill Quarry are rubbly in appearance (Figure 7). This may be attributed to differential compaction and slumping of the harder beds. Thin beds and seams of clay and chert masses are associated with the lime- stone throughout the quarry. Yon and Hendry (1972) reported that the Su- wannee Limestone is a "high calcium" rock that ranges from 92.41 to 99.56 percent calcium car- bonate. Solution pipes and collapse features (sink- holes) formed in the Suwannee are observed in the Radar Hill Quarry (Figure 8) and in other quarries in Hernando County. These solution features are filled with siliciclastic material and have a direct bearing on the mining of the limestone. In small sinkholes the siliciclastic material is removed and the surrounding rock is mined. However, if the sink- holes are large, the siliciclastic sediments are left and the area is not mined. An example of this is on the northeast side of the quarry in the area of block 12 (Figure 9). THICKNESS The thickness of the recrystallized limestone por- tion of the Suwannee Limestone is variable be- cause of the karst activity that has affected it. Cross sections C-C' and D-D' (Figure 5b) give some in- dication of the thickness of the recrystallized por- tion of the Suwannee Limestone deposit at the Radar Hill Quarry. C-C' indicates that the recrys- tallized limestone may be over 70-feet thick in the center of the quarry area, thinning to about 20-feet at the northern quarry boundary. Section D-D' also indicates that the recrystallized limestone forms a ridge-like feature. At the highest point, it may be up to 70-feet thick; along the edges of the ridge area the limestone ranges from 20 to approximately 50-feet thick. A regional illustration of the thickness of the recrystallized Suwannee Limestone deposit is shown in cross sections A-A' and B-B' (Figure 4). Section A-A' shows that the recrystallized limestone varies from approximately 60-feet thick near Brooksville, Hernando County, to 25-feet thick in southern Citrus County. Section B-B', which connects a quarry near the boundary of Hernando and Citrus Counties and the Radar Hill Quarry, suggests that the recrystallized Su- wannee Limestone thins toward the west. In Hernando County, Yon and Hendry (1972) observed that the Suwannee Limestone is thickest FLORIDA GEOLOGICAL SURVEY EXPLANATION SCALE 0 WATER WELL 0 1 mi % QUARRIES 0 1 km .-loo-CONTOUR INTERVAL 50 FEET APPROXIMATE SCALE REFERREDTO MEAN SEA LEVEL Figure 3.

These ob- servations are applicable to the Radar Hill area where the Suwannee Limestone is also thickest beneath the hills (Figure 5b). MINING AND PROCESSING The Suwannee Limestone located at the Radar Hill Quarry in the Withlacoochee State Forest is mined by conventional dry, open-pit mining meth- ods. Removal of the overburden materials, includ- ing organic sands, sandy clay and clays, is conducted by use of large pans and bulldozers. Material not needed for immediate reclamation work is stored in spoil piles adjacent to an active mining area for future reclamation activities. Use of a large bulldozer with a material ripper attachment is employed next in order to reduce the height of the vertical faces to 45 feet or less prior to drilling and blasting. This height reduction is a safety procedure used to protect the employees and equipment working near an active vertical face in the event of a slope failure. Conventional air rotary drill rigs using down hole air hammers are used to drill a blasting pattern, which is loaded with explosives for initial disruption and size reduction of the raw material in place. The quarried raw material is then loaded on large off-highway haul trucks by use of track mounted shovels and rubber-tired loaders (Figure 10). Next, loaded raw material is transported to the primary roll crusher for further size reduction and beneficiation of the plant feed. Beneficiation is performed in three steps: scrubbing the material free of sand, clays, and other unwanted material; secondary crushing; and separation into size fractions by conveyor before stockpiling. The sized material is then blended from the stockpiles through tunnels to meet job specifications, followed by processing through a final wash, and final storage in loadout bins in preparation for transportation to the consumer. RECLAMATION An important part of the plan of operation for the Radar Hill Quarry is the rehabilitation of the mined land, either during the time of mining or soon after an area is mined. Florida Rock Industries, Inc., re- ports that there are approximately 384 mineable acres of land at Radar Hill and another 91 acres which will be used for stockpiling overburden (Fig- ure 9). The plans for mining and reclamation are tied closely together. Each block to be mined is subjected to a sequence of four steps. Step one consists of clearing and burning of vegetation. In step two, the block is stripped of overburden and the overburden is stockpiled. Step three consists of mining the limestone and step four involves re- clamation. Backfilling the mined out areas is chal- lenging because of the vertical walls created by moving the limestone deposit. As a tract is mined and reclamation begins, overburden is taken from stockpiled areas and placed against the vertical walls formed by mining. The overburden is graded to create gentle slopes which will minimize erosion and accomplish revegetation. Revegetating the graded area is complicated be- cause of the various sizes of rock fragments as- sociated with the sand, sandy clay and clay overburden. However, when the Radar Hill Quarry is completely reclaimed, the final appearance and usefulness of the site for recreation and wildlife habitat is expected to fulfill the objective of the min- ing plan.
