CHE SIGNIFICA QUARRY IN INGLESE

Cava

Quarry

Una cava è un luogo da cui è stata scavata dal suolo pietra, roccia, aggregato di costruzione, riprap, sabbia, ghiaia o ardesia. Una cava è la stessa cosa di una miniera aperta dalla quale vengono estratti minerali. L'unica differenza banale tra i due è che le miniere a cielo aperto che producono materiali da costruzione e pietra di dimensione sono comunemente chiamati cave. La parola cava può anche includere la cava sotterranea per la pietra, come la pietra del bagno.

A quarry is a place from which dimension stone, rock, construction aggregate, riprap, sand, gravel, or slate has been excavated from the ground. A quarry is the same thing as an open-pit mine from which minerals are extracted. The only trivial difference between the two is that open-pit mines that produce building materials and dimension stone are commonly referred to as quarries. The word quarry can also include the underground quarrying for stone, such as Bath stone.
