This approximately 109-acre tract in Hill County, Texas, offers a significant opportunity for aggregate mining operations. A recent geotechnical investigation indicates substantial volumes of commercially viable materials, including approximately 45.9 million cubic yards of lean clay (approximately 74.4 million tons), approximately 9.8 million cubic yards of clayey sand (approximately 15.8 million tons), approximately 5.4 million cubic yards of sand (approximately 8.8 million tons), and approximately 4.9 million cubic yards of gravel (approximately 8.0 million tons). The estimated in-place value is over $114 million, and the estimated load-ready value is over $830 million. The subsurface materials are suitable for various construction uses, including select fill for residential and commercial pads, cushion sand and Portland cement concrete production, drainage media, and asphalt mixes. Gravel particles range from 3 inches to 3/16", making them well-suited for concrete, asphalt, and road base production. Several strata also meet TxDOT standards for select fill and engineered soils. The report identifies eight distinct excavation zones across the property, with depth to shale bedrock averaging 30 feet. Some areas are already under excavation, providing immediate access to the aggregate. Situated along SH 174, the site is easily accessible to regional markets and infrastructure projects in Central and North Texas. Elevation ranges from 550 to 605 feet, with favorable topography for mining operations. This presents an opportunity for an aggregate company, construction firm, or investor to capitalize on the growing demand for materials across Texas infrastructure and development sectors.
