Gravel and Sand Quarrying in New Zealand

The Gravel and Sand Quarrying industry has performed poorly over the past few years. This performance has been due to volatile volume growth, lower downstream demand, lower prices and the negative effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Sand and gravel are usually mined from a quarry, with only basic screening and washing processes required. Alternatively, some industry goods, like river pebbles, are dredged from streams and rivers. As a result, technology use is limited across the industry, despite high capital requirements for plants, equipment and vehicles.

Industry operators quarry, wash and screen sand or natural gravel. The industry excludes firms that quarry, crush or screen crushed or broken stone, or quarry silica.
