bovenste laag van (een/de) steengroeve afgraven (desnoods 'scalperen van steengroeve') Explanation: Naar analogie met het 'afgraven van de bovenste bodemlaag' bij wegenwerken, denk ik dat je dit hier ook kunt gebruiken: 'het afgraven van de bovenste laag kalksteen van een steengroeve'. Een 'steengroeve scalperen' zal ook wel begrepen worden, maar daarvoor heb ik geen referenties gevonden. HTH |
