Consultants are locally available in each office with ‘in-depth’ support available nationally from our established central office in Brighton & Hove, East Sussex.

Whether minerals are already known, suspected or hoped for on land, we are able to advise on the most appropriate means of achieving their development and value. Sand and gravel, limestone, sandstone, clay, sand, igneous rocks, industrial minerals – all minerals necessary and valuable for modern civilised society – may be considered and dealt with.

If minerals have been extracted then pits, holes in the ground, may be landfilled or converted to other uses or developed in any way, including potential for additional extraction, then Strutt & Parker are the consultants for you.

Tips on land, whether existing old minerals tips may now be “contaminated land”. Proposals to landfill by tipping any materials by depositing waste on land are potentially criminal activities and should only be undertaken lawfully with the benefit of carefully considered advice. Banks, solicitors and accountants value Strutt & Parker’s pragmatic advice derived from experience in the field – or pit!

Valuation of mineral and landfill sites, advice on Rent and Royalty reviews under leases and licences and ‘hands-on’ management of property being developed and used for, or in connection with, minerals aggregates recycling or other linked activities, are all areas where Strutt & Parker can provide valuable assistance and advice.

We are used to working with other professionals and experts and well able to consider minerals developments from an owner’s point of view. Mineral planning and tip planning may often require years of painstaking work to bring a development into the market. Environmental appraisal and economic appraisals are often necessary as part of the general background approach to realizing value. With recent changes in Planning legislation affecting minerals and waste policy plans and continuing change in the Environmental legislation, it is nowadays essential to take sound advice.

Help, advice, and assistance can be obtained from any Strutt & Parker office in the first instance, or contact us below for a more detailed response.
