Not sure of the density you require, but I can help with the volume.

200 feet * 190 feet * (4 inches / 12) feet = 12666.67 cubic feet

Now you'll just need the density of the substance to calculate the weight.

You can use the volume Robert gave you as a start but densities of milled asphalt will vary dependent on base materials, and gradation, moisture content and compaction of the finished product must be taken into account.

You need to contact a local materials company dealing with asphalt reclamation. Local asphalt plants and/or sand and gravel facilities would be the place to start.
