building a STRONGER foundation - Cemex

(2) Our cement raw materials operations in the U.S. include two limestone quarries that also produce hard rock aggregates.
As of December 31, 2010, we operated 488 aggregates quarries across our global operations, not including our facilities
dedicated to serve our ready-mix and aggregates businesses. We estimate that our proven and probable aggregates reserves, on a
consolidated basis, have an average remaining life of 26 years, assuming 2006-2010 average production (last five years average
aggregates production).
The table set forth below, present our total permitted proven and probable aggregates reserves by geographic segment and
material type extracted or produced in our aggregates quarries operations.
