Schoolchildren showed the technology of mining crushed stone at the Chimbulat quarry

During the trip, the lyceum students were clearly demonstrated how natural resources necessary to create a reliable roadway are extracted and processed.

Such visits to existing production facilities allow future specialists from an early age to immerse themselves in real work processes.

For the Kirov region, where road construction and modernization of transport arteries remain among the priorities, early training of qualified personnel is of particular importance.

During the visit, schoolchildren got acquainted in detail with the technological chain of crushed stone manufacturing, which is the basic material for road infrastructure.

The teenagers were shown blasting and allowed to descend directly to the limestone deposits.

The specialists of the enterprise told the children about the history of the formation of rocks, and also demonstrated the process of crushing raw materials and turning it into building rubble of various factions.

The Governor of the Kirov region Alexander Sokolov noted that the visit to the production career was an important step in the implementation of the career guidance course.

The head of the region stressed that thanks to this trip, teenagers were able to see the functioning of the road industry from the inside.

He also added that in the future the children are waiting for practical classes, as well as direct communication with leading engineers and management staff of specialized enterprises of the region.

Surveillance of crushed stone mining has opened a series of planned activities for a specialized class.

Students will continue to combine theoretical lessons with visits to key facilities of the region’s transport network to gain a complete understanding of the chosen field of activity.
