| Remarks | 1938. aastal avati Rummus Vasalemma Lubja- ja Marmoritehas ja sellega küljekuti vangla. 1970ndateks oli kaevanduse olulisus aga langenud, kuna paekivi kasutati ehitusmaterjalina vähem. 1990ndatel keerati pump täiesti kinni ja vesi täitis karjääri väidetavalt nii kiiresti, et ei jõutud isegi masinaid august välja tuua. |
