In 2008, 7.9 million tonnes of Limestone were quarried from the Peak District - this is roughtly five times as much as in 1951.
I would guess to start by using 7.9 million and dividing it by 5.
My answer = 1.58 million.
Please correct me if i am wrong.

Indiana has a limestone quarry. The outside of the house is limestone.
Limestone is obtained through mining or quarrying. Large deposits of limestone can be found in many parts of the world and are typically extracted using heavy machinery and explosives. After extraction, the limestone is processed and crushed into various sizes for use in construction, agriculture, and other industries.
The Lake district (in Cumbria, England) is a natural phenomenon and has been called the "Lake District" because it has many lakes since ancient times. The "Lake District National Park" was established 1951 to protect the environment of the Lake District.
There are no bricks in Khufu's pyramid but there are some 2.3 million blocks of stone. Most of these block are cut from limestone quarried locally with an average weight of 2.5 tons. There are some granite blocks some of which weigh up to 70 tons.
limestone is made underwater from the shells of animals. We know this because limestone also contains many fossils.
Limestone can be found in many parts of the world and is usually mined in surface quarries.
After being quarried it can be "roasted" in a revolving cylindrical "oven" to produce cement. Cement is in concrete and mortar, so the limestone has helped the construction of buildings and bridges. Indeed during the last World War there were even boats made from concrete. Limestone itself can be used as the foundation for road construction, and, like other types of stone, is used to construct stone buildings and stone walls. Lime and limestone are also used in many industrial and chemical processes.
Many geologists believe that limestone deposits on land exist where ancient seas used to be. The moisture, over many centuries, created limestone.
The molecule of limestone (calcium carbonate, CaCO3) contain 5 atoms.
