COMPANY PROFILE

OUR PEOPLE

Shepton Quarry is proudly owned and operated by Central Highlands Regional Council.

We use highly competent and experienced contracted extractive industry professionals to operate the Shepton Quarry and its auxiliary pits to maximise efficient service delivery and minimise production cost.

We supply very high quality, NATA certified, hard rock product from a high-grade geological source for civil and road building and maintenance projects.

MEET THE MANAGER BOB WARE

The quarry is situated 25 kilometres east of Capella and 40 kilometres north of Emerald on a 64.74 hectare site incorporating a large open cut pit, a crushing plant, office facilities and weighbridge.

Our manager is one of the most highly qualified extractive industry professionals in the business. With more than 20 years’ industry experience, Bob is a fellow of the Institute of Quarrying Australia and has attained a Diploma of Extractive Industries Management and an Advanced Certificate in Extract Industries.

Its location, in the heart of the Bowen Basin, supports product delivery to Capella, Emerald, Clermont and surrounding areas.

Our diversification into other regional pits at Arcadia Valley, Mungabunda and Carnarvon ensures supply to the southern part of the Central Highlands region.

OUR PRODUCT At Shepton Quarry all source rock for our quarrying operations is basalt (often called blue metal). Basalt is a dark-coloured, very strong, fine-grained igneous rock, and is used for road base, concrete aggregate, asphalt pavement aggregate, railroad ballast, filter stones in drains, and many other purposes. Shepton Quarry only uses the highest quality source rock to manufacture all of its quarried products.
