How many rocks do you have to crush to make a ton?
A ton is not a numerical unit, that it to say, if I have a ton of rock, I will not have 82. A ton is a unit of weight, equal to 2000 (short ton, US) or 2240 (long ton, UK pre 1985) pounds. A US ton (which is where I'm assuming you're from, as the UK now uses the tonne, which is 1000 kg) is equal to roughly 907kg.
Thus to get a ton of rock, you would need 2000lbs.
