FACTS ABOUT THE MINE

Mining and reclamation at Rincon Materials will occur concurrently over a period of just 10 years. As mining finishes in an area reclamation will begin. This minimises the ongoing disturbance of the mining to 5 – 7 acres, significantly less than the ~50 acre whole. Natural berms between the river and mining are also maintained to ensure that mining activities are invisible to river users. Conveyor belts and no asphalt plant mean that the typical nuisances of rock truck dust and asphalt tar smell will not be present at Rincon Materials.
