豪西蒙（Holcim）宣布它已经取得了一项长期的采矿权租约，该矿面积为1760英亩，位于内华达州，距离拉斯维加斯40公里。豪西蒙将很快展开石灰石矿藏的测试，以开采作为生产水泥的原料。
豪西蒙地区副总裁Paul Harrington 说：“这一位置有助于豪西蒙在这一区域未来水泥生产量的巨大增加，并有助于内华达州和犹它州市场未来的增长。”他还表示“尽管现在市场间歇性低迷，我们对内华达州项目未来增长还是充满信心。加上我们目前在拉斯维加斯的姐妹公司，骨料工业公司的表现，这些都使豪西蒙成为区域新项目发展供应商的重要人选。”

Holcim (us) announCed it has acquired a long-term lease option to the mining rights on a 1760-acre site located in Clark County, Nevada, situated 40 miles east of Las Vegas. Holcim will soon begin the testing process to confirm the viability of the limestone reserves as raw material for cement production.
“This site has the potential to significantly increase Holcim’s cement production in the area and support the future growth of the Nevada and Utah markets,” said Paul Harrington, senior vice president, Mountain Region, Holcim (US). “Despite the current market lull we have great confidence that the future growth projections in Nevada, combined with our current presence in Las Vegas through our sister company Aggregate Industries, will well position Holcim to support new development projects throughout the region.”
