Today, technical stone is a material that is used on a huge scale, and its annual consumption in the world is expressed in thousands of millions of tons. The demand for construction, such as houses, hospitals, hotels, schools and so on, has expanded, especially in developing countries. One of the key elements that increases the demand for such products is the numerous government infrastructure projects and maintenance programs. All levels of government in Bosnia and Herzegovina strive to implement good infrastructure, because in this way they enable trade, support industry, connect workers with jobs, and in this way bring hope for prosperity in these areas. The paper gives a brief overview of the production and processing of dolomite from the "Plješevac" quarry near Kiseljak as a positive example from the practice of "production and processing from raw material to final product".
