UK: Clay brick and concrete products producer Ibstock is seeking an industrial partner for a ‘major’ calcined clay cement plant in the UK.
The group has identified a large reserve of high-kaolin clay at one of its operating brick clay quarries in central England. The site is a fully-consented quarry, with sufficient calcinable material to support calcined clay production for more than 25 years. ‘Extensive’ drilling and industrial trials have been completed to confirm the reserves and the reactivity of the calcined clay for use in low-carbon cement production.
Ibstock says that is looking at an industrial partner to collaborate on the design, construction and commercialisation of the project. It is open to exploring optimal investment and partnership models to fully realise the potential of the site.
