Monuments in the Rough 
The combined production of our quarries is something like 20,000 blocks 
per year. Not all of this marble can be applied to orders on hand — some of it 
must go to the block pile. 
The illustration outlines a section of one of our storage-grounds. It is 
estimated that there are about 1 3,000 blocks in this pile. Granting that the 
average weight of a quarry block is approximately twenty tons, it follows that 
all this marble together would weigh 260,000 tons. 
These are big figures, but it should be remembered that the yearly output 
of Vermont marble monuments has reached a total of 250,000. In order to 
meet this demand there must be a large supply of blocks.
