The Missouri Department of Natural Resources describes a Non-Metallic Mineral Mining and Dressing business as:
A business that plans to extract stone, sand, rock or similar materials from natural deposits. Dressing processes include grinding, mixing, cutting, shaping, and honing. Heat often is used in the process and chemicals are frequently mixed to change the composition, purity, and chemical properties for the intended product. For example, glass is produced by heating silica sand to the melting point (sometimes combined with cullet or recycled glass) and then drawn, floated, or blow molded to the desired shape or thickness. Refractory materials are heated and then formed into bricks or other shapes for use in industrial applications.
You may need some or all of the following permits for a Non-Metallic Mineral Mining and Dressing business:
