Listing quarries, mines, and gravel-pits on our portals is entirely free of charge.

Upon receiving your details, our team will evaluate the information to assess the potential for attracting buyers. We often encounter situations where initial price expectations are unrealistically high. To ensure an accurate valuation, we suggest either a paid official assessment from one of our experts or a complimentary evaluation based on our extensive market experience.

A realistic sales price can generally be determined by multiplying the average EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortisation) from the past three years by a factor of 6-9, depending on the type of stone and business model.

Incomplete information or unrealistic pricing may impede publication. Our expert team will also examine the submitted data for plausibility and the chances of a successful sale to both national and international investors. If your information meets our criteria, and we approve publication, we will enter into a commission agreement with the owner(s), securing our commission upon the signing of the sales contract with the new buyer. We do not charge any fees until we find an investor, except for travel expenses incurred when presenting serious investors on-site. We are happy to work with agents and representatives of owners.

Different countries and states have unique mining regulations and processes for obtaining extraction licences/permissions.

The ownership of quarry land also varies significantly across nations. In some places, individuals can privately own both land and quarry rights, while in others, they must lease these rights from local or national authorities.

In certain countries, mining laws are stringent, requiring landowners to permit extraction on their property if a valid mining licence/permission exists. In such scenarios, landowners typically receive royalties through various mechanisms.

Explanation of Complexity:

Regulatory Differences: Mining laws are not universal, meaning stakeholders must navigate specific legal frameworks in each jurisdiction.

Ownership Structures: The way land and quarry rights can be owned (privately or leased) creates varied opportunities and challenges for miners and landowners.

Landowner Rights: The rights of landowners differ, particularly regarding the extraction process, thereby affecting negotiations, profits, and royalties.

Economic Implications: The approach to ownership and licensing can impact local economies, including how royalties are distributed and the revenue generated from resources.

Understanding these complexities is essential for anyone involved in mining or related industries, as they influence operational decisions and potential profitability.

Total Size of the Quarry Area Land: This refers to the complete area of land designated for the quarry or mining operation. It encompasses all land owned or leased by the company for the purpose of mining activities, including areas not currently in use.

Size of the Total Mining Licence/Permission: This is the area covered by the legal right or permit granted by the relevant authorities to extract minerals. It may include not just the extraction area but also buffer zones or other necessary areas defined by regulations.

Current Extraction Area: This is the specific part of the quarry or mine where active extraction of minerals is taking place. It is typically a subset of both the total quarry area land and the area covered by the mining licence.

In summary, the total size of the quarry area land includes all land associated with the quarry, the size of the mining license is the legally permitted area for mining, and the current extraction area is the actively mined portion.
