New cement plant planned for Montenegro

16 September 2024

Montenegro: The government of Montenegro and the Ministry of Mining, Oil and Gas plan to construct a new cement plant in Pljevlja at the Jagnjilo site, known for its significant marl deposits. This initiative aims to replace an old landfill, contributing to environmental preservation and harnessing local raw materials for cement production, continuing a legacy that began with a plant operating from 1975 to 1988, according to a statement by the Ministry.

Heidelberg Materials Lixhe seeks to expand Romont quarry

12 September 2024

Belgium: Heidelberg Materials Lixhe (formerly CBR) has applied to expand the Romont quarry towards Kanne, ensuring the Lixhe plant's operations for the next 20 years with an additional 94.75 hectares. This expansion marks the third and final phase, intending to continue marl extraction on Walloon territory. A public inquiry is scheduled from 16 September - 30 October 2024.

Director Benoit Gastout said "Based on a recent environmental impact report, we are now requesting the partial revision of the regional plan and an environmental permit for the desired extension. We are very aware of the impact of the quarry on the region. That is why we have been taking various measures for years to ensure that Romont is embedded in the landscape as well as possible and that the fauna and flora are respected because of the rich biodiversity. The priority in all of this remains that we want to live in harmony with the local population.”

Swiss government warned of decline in cement production from 2024 unless raw materials secured

21 December 2020

Switzerland: The Federal Council has noted a report stating that, without extensions to raw material extraction licences, domestic cement production is set to decline by 36% from 2024. The Agence Télégraphique Suisse has reported that local producers are already restricted by limited legally available limestone and marl reserves. At present the local cement sector provides 86% of Switzerland’s 5Mt/yr domestic cement demand. The report by the Swiss Geological Survey states that acceptance of all proposed mining expansion projects in 2023 would delay the projected decline until the end of 2030.
