There's more going on in the quarry than you might expect.

"Many former quarries were filled in after the quarrying stopped. Or they were left to their own devices and became overgrown, so that they are now difficult to recognize. However, if a quarry is kept open after use through regular maintenance measures, it can contain develop a diverse biotope: The steep demolition walls warm up accordingly depending on their orientation and inclination and are often populated by heat-loving animal and plant species. Small bodies of water in the hollows are important spawning waters for amphibians such as the yellow-bellied toad and the midwife toad. On the nutrient-poor soils of the quarries species-rich lean grasslands can develop."
