The Sunrise Silica LLC Quarry is a privately-owned 163 acre property, plus additional unpatented mining claims on adjoining BLM land. The 163 acres of land is zoned Aggregate Resource & FR-160 allowing it to be mined for any or all of their contained silica (quartz), limestone (primarily calcium carbonate), dolomite (magnesium-rich limestone), & aggregate.The property has been mined since 1938 & features a large body of dolomitic limestone that contains a roughly 250' by 900' replacement body of very high purity quartz. It is located at the end of a private road, sheltered from view by the distance away from neighbors, making it an attractive location for expanded production.The in-place reserves are approximately:2.5 million tons of silica, 7 million tons of dolomite, plus 50 million tons of aggregate, base and & road rock. With modest upgrading & efficient production, several historic markets should be available. With the increasing uses of silica the market outlook is excellent.
