What Does a Tour Include? Tours typically include a general presentation by a Vulcan representative before the group proceeds on the tour of the production facility. The general presentation includes information about Vulcan Materials Company, the use of minerals within society and particularly the role aggregates play in today's world. There is also a discussion of the mining process, how we produce aggregates, the regulatory and permitting requirements and reclamation efforts. A safety talk is also included that addresses the safety requirements for the specific tour and group of visitors.
Walking Tours: Walking tours may involve a combination of viewing operations from a vehicle as well as actually walking through certain portions of the facility in order to gain a more detailed understanding of the processes involved.
