Quarry Design and Planning

Quarry design is essential not only to your site’s productivity but also to improved sustainability in the quarrying and cement industries. GWP is a renowned quarry design consultancy, known for optimising use of your site’s mineral resources, while addressing the needs of multi-discipline stakeholders – planning, licensing authorities, operations, safety, and environmental teams.

Our experience spans hard rock and sand and gravel sites in diverse locations worldwide, and from small scale to super quarry settings. Clients can benefit from quarry design and phasing plans that detail how a mineral operation, its excavated slopes, stockpiles, tips, and lagoons, will develop from start to finish. The working layouts, restoration landforms, and working methods proposed accommodate all relevant production, geotechnical, safety and environmental targets and constraints.

Quarry Design Expertise
