Quarrying. Our excavators are suited to digging sand, gravel and quarry materials in situations where safe working remote from rock faces is necessary or deep excavation, in and around water is required. Plant can be hired on an hourly rate or on price work. The Caterpillar machines are the most productive in their class and ideally suited to ...
MoreQuarrying is the process of removing rock, sand, gravel or other minerals from the ground in order to use them to produce materials for construction or other uses. So, a quarry is any such working on the surface of the earth where minerals are extracted.

MoreSand and gravel extraction from rivers can cause destabilisation of channels, increased and unpredictable rates and patterns of incision, erosion and deposition, often for considerable distances both up and downstream. The reduction in sediment supply can increase the rates of channel incision and bank erosion, causing damage to structures such as bridges. A hard armoured bed layer may

Section 25(1) of the EMPC Act required Council to refer the application to the Board of the Environment Protection Authority (the Board) for assessment under the Act.
MoreThe sand extraction will be carried out by dredging to an average depth of around 4.5 metres. Dredging involves a small electrically powered boat which is placed in a lake created when the underlying groundwater in the sand is exposed by removal of the overlying soil.
MoreSand mining is the extraction of sand, mainly through an open pit but sometimes mined from beaches and inland dunes or dredged from ocean and river beds. Sand is often used in manufacturing, for example as an abrasive or in concrete. It is also used on icy and snowy roads usually mixed with salt, to lower the melting point temperature, on the road surface. Sand can replace eroded coastline. Some

MoreOnce the overburden has been removed by processes similar to those used in hard rock quarrying, deposits of sand and gravel are usually extracted by a range of earth-moving plant (Figure 16.6). Some sand and gravel pits extract beneath the local water table and are ‘wet pits’, whereas others exploit wholly above the water and are ‘dry pits’.
