"Situated approximately 23 kilometres south-west of Brno, this quarry is conveniently accessible via state road II/395 and is 10 kilometres from the Brno-Pohorelice-Mikulov-Vienna motorway. Given the existing treatment plant, the quarry specialises in the production of gravel and crushed-run material, with a small share of grit production. The quarried rock is grey granodiorite of a quality that allows us to produce grit and gravel of the highest quality."

"Kamenolom je situován cca 23 km jihozápadne od centra mesta Brno, dobre prístupný po státní silnici II/395 s napojením ve vzdálenosti 10 km na rychlostní komunikaci Brno – Pohorelice-Mikulov-Víden. S ohledem na stávající úpravárenské zarízení je lom zameren na výrobu šterku a šterkodrtí s malým podílem výroby drtí. Teženou horninou je granodiorit šedé barvy, který svou kvalitou umožnuje výrobu drtí a šterku v nejvyšších kvalitách."
