Asegurar un confiable, alto rendimiento sitio de cantera en Lagos is not just about location—it’s a strategic decision for supply chain control, cost predictability, y viabilidad del proyecto.

2. DESCRIPCIÓN GENERAL DEL PRODUCTO

This offering pertains to the development and operation of strategically located, fully permitted quarry sites in Lagos. The operational workflow is engineered for commercial aggregate production:
1. Site Preparation & Benching: Claro, grubbing, and establishing safe, accessible working benches according to geological survey data.
2. Perforación & Voladura (si corresponde): Precision operations following strict safety and regulatory protocols to fragment bedrock.
3. Trituración Primaria & Cribado: Mobile or stationary crushers reduce extracted rock to manageable sizes, with initial screening for scalpings.
4. Procesamiento secundario/terciario & Clasificación: Further crushing and screening circuits produce specific aggregate gradations (p.ej., 3/4", 1/2", arena afilada).
5. Almacenamiento & Despacho: Sorted aggregates are stockpiled under cover or in open yards for quality preservation and efficient loading.
Ámbito de aplicación: Supply of granite aggregates, piedra triturada, and related materials for Lagos construction, construcción de carreteras, y producción de hormigón.
Limitaciones: Operations are subject to state environmental regulations and zoning laws; sites are finite resources requiring phased extraction planning.

8. Preguntas frecuentes

What is the typical lead time from agreement to first aggregate production?
For sites with all permits secured and basic infrastructure present, first production can commence within 6090 days following mobilization of client's crushing plant.

How do you ensure consistent aggregate gradation across different blast sequences?
Our sites employ a controlled blasting plan managed by certified engineers, coupled with a processing circuit that includes postcrush screening decks. This allows for precise recirculation and blending to maintain NISspecified gradation bands.

Are these quarry sites suitable for setting up a permanent stationary crushing plant?
Sí. The sites are surveyed and prepared with stable platforms suitable for permanent plant foundations. Utility access points are established at designated locations.

What commercial model provides the best cost certainty for a largescale infrastructure project?
An exclusive offtake agreement typically offers the highest degree of cost certainty, locking in price per tonnage grade for the project duration while the operator manages all extraction risks.

Is technical training provided for our personnel on sitespecific geology and safety protocols?
Sí. A mandatory site induction covering geology, safety zones, emergency procedures, and material flow is provided by our operations team prior to any client activity commencement
