Underground Space Resources in Missouri is a Report of Investigations, Number 65. The first subject covered is an evaluation of underground quarries. Then the state is divided into 7 areas and analyzed by the formations mined and the types of quarries therein--such as limestone, sandstone, and dolomite. Some of the areas are for mining only and others are opened up and improved so they can be used for storage and office space--in the Kansas City area, for example. Eight counties are included in the Kansas City area and contain most of the developed underground space in Missouri.
