What is the IOQ?
We promote and support the quarry industry.
The Institute of Quarrying was founded over 100 years ago by four people with a vision for the mineral products industry. They wanted the industry to come together to raise standards, share knowledge and be recognised as highly skilled professionals which are the principles that guide the Institute of Quarrying today.
Membership
Membership is open to people employed in, or supplying to, the surface mineral extractive and processing industries in any country of the world.
