Benefits & usage

From planning phase to reinstatement

Whether it's a small privately owned quarry or a large-scale commercial site, a quarry and mineral survey is a vital part of the early stages of the planning phase of a quarry right through to the reinstatement phase. As an accurate representation of all site features and levels, quarry and mineral surveys are used by planners and engineers to design and plan for the best possible project outcome. These include:

Optimising site layout and access

Planning for structure design and location

Identifying site constraints

Site levels

Underground utility planning and locations

Identifying off-site constraints: surrounding buildings, trees and highways
