Bass Point Quarry

Bass Point Quarry, located within the Shellharbour City Local Government Area, has been used for extractive industry since 1880 and produces a range of hard rock aggregates for the Sydney, Wollongong construction and industrial sectors. Products include road base, pre-coated and concrete-grade aggregates, manufactured sand, armour rock and fill materials.

The quarry is committed to sustainable practices and is soon to commence producing materials that incorporate reused products such as concrete washout and recycled glass, supporting a more circular and environmentally responsible construction industry.
