Extracting purity since 1868
Mining in the Gola della Rossa is now 150 years old.
A history that has always been linked to the territory, its traditions, balance and respect for the environment and people. To become one of the most important realities at national level.
Loyalty to tradition, combined with a vocation for modernity and technological innovation, are the values on which every action of Gola della Rossa Mineraria is based. Emphasising the centrality of the human and environmental dimension of every intervention. Everything originates from the quarry, but a deep sense of modernity and an innate propensity for progress have created new ways of seeing and experiencing mining, and everything around it. With time, knowledge grows and numbers and ideas grow. Technology comes into play, exclusively supporting man and his well-being.
Advanced sustainability: underground mining
The project for the industrial reconversion and environmental redevelopment of the Gola della Rossa area – carried out in collaboration with the universities of Trieste, Bologna and Camerino – has led to the transformation from an open-pit to an underground mining site.
An evolved, highly specialised extraction system that leaves the surface ecosystem untouched in favour of the definitive reintegration of the quarry area into its territorial context, mitigating the impact of the most visible areas and creating the best conditions for the settlement of native flora and fauna.
The link with the territory is achieved through the promotion of compatible innovation.
Calcium carbonate from Gola della Rossa
The multiple uses of this precious material make it an indispensable resource for human life: for building, feeding, healing, progressing.
The characteristics of purity and homogeneity of the Gola della Rossa calcium carbonate therefore make this deposit a strategic asset, to be guarded and used with respect and intelligence, in synergy with the needs of the territory.
A calcium carbonate with unique characteristics: purity > 98%, free of iron, silica and other substances.
