When most people think of rock quarries, a certain image comes to mind: Deep pits. Boulders blasted from the ground. Trucks and heavy machinery transporting and crushing the rock. Mining rock is not a particularly exciting or attractive industry, but it is vital to our way of life. And the fact is KBDJ is much more than just a quarry.

On the open space surrounding the quarry, Blackbuck antelope and white-tailed deer roam freely among the towering, majestic live oaks. A peaceful pond is home to bass and catfish. Natural water crossings lie undisturbed and are protected from runoff by silt fences. As lifelong Texans and outdoorsmen (and women), we at KBDJ are committed to protecting the natural beauty of this hill country site.
