Dalhousie Pozzolan Project
EcoRock Dalhousie Inc. is proposing the expansion and operation of an existing quarry to extract and process aggregate. The project would be located in Heron Bay, approximately 20 kilometres northeast of Campbellton, New Brunswick. The project is being proposed in two phases. As proposed, Phase I would expand an existing quarry from 10 to 80 hectares, and Phase II would include a grinding mill and facilities to produce pozzolan. The project's production capacity would be up to 3 million tonnes per year.
