ROCK
Rocks are a mineral aggregate coming in a variety of shapes, sizes, and visual specifications. Utilized for thousands for their structural stability and support, rocks will continue to be the foundation of our construction projects, large or small going forward.
Geographical location serves as the dominant factor in the size, shape and minerals that make up a rock. We extract our rocks from pits Saskatchewan-wide. This gives our product the desired unique quality in constant demand locally and across North America.
ROCK Applications
Rocks are constantly in demand due to their stability and durability for construction projects, landscaping, and retaining purposes against earth movements and erosion. Being durable and stable, rocks are the foundation of any project. Since sizing is vastly different between rocks, the applications are numerous.
Rip rap rock is commonly used along shorelines to help prevent heavy erosion by providing cover and resilient support. Without this many waterfronts would change drastically over a short period of time. Rip rap rock is crucial to any waterfront and shoreline development.
Crushing rocks is one of the most common applications for the product. It lets aggregate extractors assess and create new products to the detailed specifications for any job. Crushed rocks are mostly used in concrete, cement and plaster.






ROCK EXTRACTION
Extracting rocks requires specific methods based on the type of rocks being extracted and the intended use. All rocks are extracted and separated into piles and groupings based on size, quality and shape.
Certain extracted rocks will be crushed into a finer aggregates to be used in other compound materials.
ROCK Products

1-2” Crush Rock
Applications: 1-2” crush rock can be used for drainage or crushed into other aggregate forms.
Byproduct: Larger crush rock aggregates
Crush rock is a man made material which is made by breaking down large rocks to the desired size range. It can be used for drainage or crushed into further aggregate forms.

3-4” Crush Rock
Applications: 3-4” crush rock can be used for drainage and base for roads and driveways, as well as landscaping
Byproduct: Larger crush rock aggregates
Typically used as a road base, but can also be used for drainage and driveways. This size of crush rock is also very popular in landscaping and decorating due to its diverse colour palette and jagged shape.

5/8" Crush Rock
Applications: 5/8” crush rock can be used for driveways, walkways, flagstone, retaining walls.
Byproduct: Larger crush rock aggregates.
This size of crushed rock is used in driveways, walkways, flagstone, and retaining walls. It contains fines which help with compaction, meaning that it will stay in place. Because of its small size, it will have a very smooth finish once compacted.

3-6” Rip Rap Rock
Applications: 3-6” Rip rap rock can be used for erosion prevention, scour prevention, landscaping.
Byproduct: Larger crush rock aggregates.
Rip rap rocks of various sizes are used on shorelines and waterfronts, steep slopes, and bridge foundations to resist erosion as well as scour. They also assist in creating a natural looking esthetic for the environment they are placed in.

6-12” Rip Rap Rock
Applications: 6-12” Rip rap rock can be used for erosion prevention and scour prevention.
Byproduct: Ledge and larger rocks.
This material is crushed from ledge and larger rocks resulting in rocks in the 6-12” size range. Rocks smaller than 6” are discarded, leaving only the appropriate sized rocks. This product also has no fines, and it is used on shorelines and waterfronts to resist erosion and scour.

12-24” Rip Rap Rock
Applications: 12-24” Rip rap rock can be used for erosion prevention, sea walls, river banks, railroad ballast, road lining, inlets, outlets, culverts, storm drains
Byproduct: Ledge and larger rocks.
This size of rip rap rock is commonly used in erosion control, sea walls, river banks, railroad ballast, lining for roads, as well as inlets and outlets for culverts and storm drains. This rock size interlocks well and can be made from various different materials.

Large Boulders
Applications: Asphalt production, paving, patching, levelling.
Byproduct: Petroleum asphalt, crushed rock, and brea.
Primarily used in the production of asphalt to pave or patch roads, asphalt sand is a coarse sand type. Asphalt sand is made by crushing rock, and because it is such a great compacting material, it is also used as a levelling course for various projects
