North Carolina: Piedmont Granite and Coastal Aggregates
North Carolina's 172 quarries span the state's three distinct geological regions—Mountains, Piedmont, and Coastal Plain. The Piedmont's granite and metamorphic rocks have built Charlotte's skyline and supplied crushed stone to the rapidly growing Research Triangle. The Blue Ridge Mountains yield dimension granite and specialty stone, while coastal operations process sand and shell material for construction. North Carolina's population growth and construction boom have increased quarry production, making the state a significant southeastern supplier of construction materials.
