From here you have a good view of the quarrying of the marl.
Cement clinker, the raw material for cement, is produced from this by processing and burning

Thick layers of lime and clay in the Hanover region form the basis for cement production in Höver.
This pit is quite impressive. There are various places where you can take good photos, for example from the south.

Impressive view of a deep hole. On weekdays you can watch the opencast miners with their big excavators at work.
