Pontils is a stone quarry situated in the Conca de Barberà (Tarragona) that was exploited by Bercontres for the first time in 1989, after the transfer of the property of the mine activity, that had started en the region in 1974.


exploitation

The mine zone actually authorized makes approximately 1 hectare that means that we still have enough reserves, so that we can look at the future quite positively.

The activity is based upon the traditional exploitation method for the limestone:
Preparation
Starting-up (blasting)
Charge and transport in the treatment plant
Grinding and classification

deposits
The quarry is situated on grounds of the inferior Eocene, formed by bioclastical limestone benches, bioclastical limestone and marls, dolomite lutites and limestone.
