The participating family members are an elderly father and his son who is partially disabled. They are finding operation and management requirements are becoming more than they can handle. This represents a very good opportunity for someone with a high energy level to step in and create some serious growth. Local building and construction will absorb the fill and commercial/Industrial rock. The uniqueness of the filter sand allows this product to travel a significant distance (to 100 miles... they have even had customers on the Oregon Coast) and remain competetive. It is estimated there is 1,400,000 yards of reserve product available in the permitted acres.

Facilities: 40 contiguous acres (four parcels) with 21 under permit for mining. 7 acres are currently being worked to a depth of 60 feet. Equuipment is extensive with a well equipped maintenance and repair shop.

Competition: Produces standard crushed rock products, fill materials and three grades of high quality sand, all ODOT approved. One grade of sand is the only septic filter quality sand available in Oregon that functions as it comes from the pit. The competition must add and mix off site materials to get their sands to qualify with DEQ.

Growth/Expansion: There is a trmendous amount of growth in this Central Oregon Area. The hottest area has been Bend, Redmond, Sisters, Madras and Prineville but most recently the area of affordable choice has been The La Pine area. A steadyily growing market is being experienced and is expected to continue to grow with an ever increasing demand for new homes in the area. There is evidence of considerable geothermal potential for this property. There are several hot water wells in the vicinity and verification drilling taking place nearby.

Financing: Offers considered
