Kin Kin Quarry
Material Produced
Our Kin Kin site is a TMR-approved hard rock quarry that produces andesite/latite, a type of rock from the basalt family. The rock and aggregates produced from this quarry is utilized in a wide range of applications, including tier 1 infrastructure projects, community projects, backyard constructions and ready-mix concrete. The rock, aggregates and other quarry resources that get made at Kin Kin are essential in the construction industry, and Cordwells Resources is committed to providing the Sunshine Coast with the highest quality and most cost-effective materials.
