  • Mineral Resources in Shropshire
    Economy & Environment Corporate Director: Penny Spencer Shirehall, Abbey Foregate Shrewsbury, SY2 6ND MINERAL RESOURCES IN SHROPSHIRE The main mineral resource currently worked in Shropshire are sand and gravel, roadstone and coal and clay. The main areas containing these deposits are indicated below: Sand and Gravel There are three main types of sand and gravel in Shropshire. Glacial sand and gravel occurs extensively in the northern half of the county and is quarried at Ellesmere and around Shrewsbury. Alluvial sand and gravel occurs throughout the county associated with the major river valleys and is quarried at Bromfield north of Ludlow. A band of sand and gravel bearing strata of Permo-Triassic age occurs on the eastern side of the county and is worked at Tern Hill near Market Drayton. Planning permission was granted to work Permo-Triassic sand and gravel at Barnsley Lane east of Bridgnorth in July 2004 and a further site at Woodcote Wood near Newport on the border with Telford & Wrekin is identified in the Shropshire Telford & Wrekin Minerals Local Plan (1996-2006) as potentially suitable for sand and gravel extraction. Roadstone The diversity of Shropshire's geology yields a wide variety of roadstone resources and the county is a major producer of roadstone in the West Midlands. Pre-Cambrian gritstones produce specialist high quality roadstone at Shrewsbury, Ordovician flagstones are worked at Minsterley, Silurian limestones are worked near Much Wenlock, Carboniferous igneous rocks are worked at Clee Hill east of Ludlow, and Carboniferous dolomitic limestones are worked south of Oswestry. Coal and Clay Shropshire has a number of small coalfields, all of which have been subject to extensive historical mining activity.
