How Cement is Made
Stage of Cement Manufacture. There are six main stages of the cement manufacturing process. Stage 1: Raw Material Extraction/Quarry The raw cement ingredients needed for cement production are limestone (calcium), sand and clay (silicon, aluminum, iron), shale, fly ash, mill scale, and bauxite. The ore rocks are quarried and crushed into smaller …
