It offers its readers informative articles about the equipment and technology used by producers of crushed stone, sand and gravel.

The editorial staff covers the industry from the field, traveling thousands of miles each year to visit quarries, sand and gravel plants, and attend industry trade shows and conferences. With editorial offices in Cleveland and an experienced staff of contributing writers, Pit & Quarry has more editorial resources at its disposal than any other aggregates industry magazine. First launched in 1996, Pit & Quarry’s web site has become the leading online information source for aggregates producers.
