I am constructing a pipeline project in central Virginia in solid limestone so far with excellent results. I am rendering the rock with 4 pounds of dynamite per cubic yard for the last 3 days we haven't advanced at all the rock has changed and no amount of explosives seems to break it.I broke a piece off today and held it up to the sun I sparkles with small specks of quartz It has several hundred per square inch!What on earth have I run into and is it wide spread or will I run out of it!!! Please Help anyone!!!! Thanks from a frustrated Contractor:Steve
