    Deb,

    If I may be so bold - you need to get out the pub more often:-)

    Maybe they needed information from the Shale Mine Library?

    Preaching the Kingdom of God requires the owning and operating of a shale mine. I thought everyone knew that.

    Shale is used in concrete so I assume the WT is saving money(or trying too) by mixing their own aggregate. It seems hard to beleive that they can compete with modernized companies(like lehigh)on price when it comes to redi-mixed concrete. I bet they dont operate the pit anymore. Perhaps a member donated it or willed it to them. Or perhaps they use it for gravel.

    okay... coming from those mountains in NY, I know that they do have to register with the Department of Environmental Conservation in order to keep a shale mine. Shale can be used for many things. They use it for gravel, rock walls, cement product, ect. I must admit that they probably do have a legimate reason to use it, especially when they erect all the million dollar buildings that they do.

    I guess there's money in it.

    Watchtower Farm even has its own shale pit and crusher that produce thousands of tons of crushed shale annually, used in building roads, making parking lots and as a base for other concrete construction. Available, too, are large diesels, that will generate the farm’s own electricity should the commercial power source fail. Important too, the farm has its own fire engine.
