Quarrying of ornamental stone, limestone, gypsum, slate and other stone
What this code covers
Use this class for quarrying of ornamental stone, limestone, gypsum, slate and other stone when the main activity includes Quarrying, rough trimming and sawing of monumental and building stone (for example, marble, granite, sandstone) and Breaking and crushing of ornamental and building stone. Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity.
Official NACE Rev. 2.1 labels and explanatory notes are imported from the source dataset. Plain-language explanations are shown separately so readers can compare interpretation with the source text.
No child codes; this is a class-level code.

What are typical examples for 08.11?
Typical examples include Quarrying, rough trimming and sawing of monumental and building stone (for example, marble, granite, sandstone), Breaking and crushing of ornamental and building stone, and Quarrying, crushing and breaking of limestone.
When might 08.11 not be the right code?
Review another code when the activity is closer to mining of chemical and fertiliser minerals, see 08.91 and production of calcined dolomite, see 23.52.
Which codes should I compare before choosing 08.11?
Compare 08.11 with 08.91 Mining of chemical and fertiliser minerals, 23.52 Manufacture of lime and plaster, and 23.70 Cutting, shaping and finishing of stone when the activity description is ambiguous.
Use this class for mining of chemical and fertiliser minerals when the main activity includes Mining of natural phosphates and natural potassium salts and Mining of native sulphur. Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity.
Use this class for manufacture of lime and plaster when the main activity includes Manufacture of quicklime, slaked lime and hydraulic lime and Manufacture of plasters of calcined gypsum or calcium sulphate. Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity.
Use this class for cutting, shaping and finishing of stone when the main activity includes Cutting, shaping and finishing of stone (e.g. for use in construction, in cemeteries, on roads, as roofing) and Manufacture of stone furniture. Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity.
Use this class for operation of gravel and sand pits and mining of clay and kaolin when the main activity includes Extraction and dredging of industrial sand, sand for construction and gravel and Breaking and crushing of gravel. Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity.
Use this group for the broader activity area of quarrying of stone, sand and clay, including Quarrying of ornamental stone, limestone, gypsum, slate and other stone and Operation of gravel and sand pits and mining of clay and kaolin. Open the child codes when a more specific code is needed.
