Lots and lots of rocks at Carril Water Dam in Tomar

There are so many types of rocks that I have no idea which kind are these ones. Anyway I suspect they were brought here when they built Carril Water Dam in the area of Tomar. There may be a quarry nearby but I’m not sure of that either. It would be easier to find that out if I lived in Tomar, but since I am in Australia, which is more than 16,000 kilometres away from Portugal, this type of information is hard to find from where I live.
