Barge Loading
Battletown Materials has been loading crushed limestone onto barges and shipping it up the Ohio River for over 100 years. Armed with a full-time crew of experienced employees and our own 1250HP switchboat, Battletown Materials cleans, loads, and fleets multiple barges everyday.
About the Quarry
Located on the Ohio River in Meade County KY, our quarry has been active since 1904. It was originally opened by Kosmos Cement Company of Louisville, KY and mined exclusively for the supply of high calcium limestone for the production of Portland Cement products. Many things have changed over the past 120 years and while we still produce high calcium limestone for Portland Cement, we now also produce construction aggregates.
