Contact2021-6-25 gravel (technically called aggregate). A few coastal regions use seashells for surface material on their unpaved roads. However, this section of the manual will discuss the most common sources of material. They are quarry aggregates such as limestone, quartzite and granite; glacial deposits of stone, sand, silt and clay; and river run gravels
Contact2001-8-1 The fluvial deposits, including both sands and gravels of a present river channel and those of the old fluvial system, are still the main source of natural aggregate resources. Nowadays the supply of aggregates derived from the present river channel is decreasing, while extraction of aggregate from the old fluvial systems is gradually increasing.

Contact2021-11-22 Aggregates from primary resources. Most of the construction aggregates (Table 1) still come from primary natural resources—natural sands and gravels, or crushed stone aggregates (Poulin et al. 1994; Smith and Collis 2001), although importance of secondary sources (industrial by-products or wastes, manufactured aggregates, construction and demolition
Contact2014-2-6 The pre-Late Pleistocene units generally underlie potential aggregate sources within the Late Pleistocene and younger deposits, and in some cases serve as sources of clasts to the younger sand and gravel deposits.
ContactAggregate sources Sands and gravels can be obtained from river or glacial deposits, many of which are relatively young unconsolidated superficial deposits of Quaternary age. They may also be derived from older geological deposits, such as Triassic and Devonian conglomerates (to take English examples).

The test pit program carried out in October 2009 was completed using a track-mounted excavator. A total of fifty-two test pits were excavated in order to collect soil samples from the various horizons encountered.

Contact2006-12-1 deposits and bedrock sources. Sand gravel O€ glaciofluvial and fluvial origin are good sources of construction material. Bedrock, such as limestone and sandstone is evaluated as a source of aggregate if it is coherent and resistant to weathering in its natural state. Shale is considered as a source of subgrade material.
ContactGRAVEL STONE. Gravel Stone is available in many different shapes and sizes and can consist of almost any type of rock. Typically sizes range from 2mm to 50mm. Gravels obtained from fluvial sources are usually rounded in nature as a result of erosion whereas angular gravels are often quarried or crushed to produce a more angular product.

Contact2022-2-4 This may be assessed by tests of aggregate impact value (AIV) and aggregate crushing value (ACV). The common rock types range in AIV from good (basic volcanic, dolerite, quartzite. quartz gravels), through fair (granite, gravels composed of igneous or metamorphic fragments) to poor (weathered igneous rocks, clay-rich gravels).
