Quarry Rejuvenation
Our Aim
The goal of our project was to discourage trespassing in an
abandoned and dangerous quarry. We decided that the best way to go
about this was to take any part of the quarry that was not in use and ‘invite
the community in’.
Our Testing.
• Our samples we put through a series of tests. From these we got a table of results.
• From these we could tell which type of fish and plants we could use to populate the quarry in the future.
