Drake Stone has always been committed to environmental stewardship and the sustainable use of all mining property. We work in partnership with the US Forest Service to ensure that all mineral lands are restored to their native condition. this commitment to environmental stewardship has helped Drake Stone continue to operate in a sustainable balance with nature. The pictures below show working mineral quarries and their eventual return to their native state. http://www.fs.fed.us/geology/aml-index.htmshapeimage_1_link_0
