AGGREGATES

The basalt extracted at Areeiro has excellent qualities for the production of aggregates.

Aggregates are produced with a range of grain sizes suited for use in construction and civil engineering, namely in pavements, ready-mix concrete, precast concrete, micro-agglomerates and bituminous mixtures.

The range of available grain sizes is predetermined, but other sizes can be produced upon consultation. Performance measurements for aggregates are provided upon request.
