Our Core Products

Sharp Sand

Sharp Sand also known as concreting sand is a coarse, gritty aggregate with angular particles, ideal for concrete production, screeding, paving, and drainage applications.

3/8" (10mm) Aggregate

3/8" Aggregate is a small gravel with a nominal size of 3/8 inch (10mm). It is commonly used in concrete mixes, landscaping, and as a base material for pathways and driveways.

3/4" (20mm) Aggregate

3/4" Aggregate is a medium-sized gravel with a nominal size of 3/4 inch (20mm). It is widely used in construction for concrete production, road bases and drainage systems.

Silt Sand

Silt Sand is a fine-grained aggregate with smooth, rounded particles. It is primarily used in applications requiring compactability and minimal drainage, such as filling, landscaping, and levelling.

Mining & Processing

Our mining operations begin with comprehensive site preparation, including surface water management to divert perennial streams and implement drainage systems, preventing flooding. Vegetation clearing and overburden removal are conducted using the stripping method to access high-quality raw materials efficiently. Sustainable resource management practices ensure timber is salvaged per government regulations, and topsoil is stockpiled for future land reclamation.

Heavy equipment such as bulldozers, dragline cranes, and hydraulic excavators facilitate material removal and transport, with extracted Pit Run loaded onto trucks for direct delivery to processing plants. Once mined, Pit Run undergoes processing at our two wash plants, achieving a combined output of 500 tonnes per hour. The material is thoroughly washed to remove clay and unwanted elements, then sieved and classified into various saleable products, ensuring high-quality output.
