I had some gravel trucked in for some concrete work I am doing. I know the gravel pit operator a bit and had asked him previously to save all the rock dust from around the crusher and conveyers. At the same time I asked him for a lab report on the quarry to ensure that there were no toxic metals in the basalt, and it qualified for agricultural use, and is high in trace minerals. They recently moved the crusher to a new location, and he saved all the rock dust for me.
While delivering the gravel, there was enough rock dust to fill the pup trailer on the gravel truck. I got several tons of basaltic rock dust for the price of trucking ($150) my gravel!
