In the UK, approximately 50 million tonnes of limestone are quarried annually. This figure can vary slightly from year to year based on demand and economic conditions. The limestone is primarily used in construction, agriculture, and various industrial processes. Major quarrying regions include the Peak District, the Yorkshire Dales, and the Mendips.
