Montrose Quarry is one of Boral's three operations at Montrose, making contribution to building and construction throughout the Melbourne CBD, eastern and south-eastern suburbs.
Materials from the historic hard rock quarry can be found in many of Melbourne's most recognisable structures.
The operations are located in the foothills of Mt Dandenong, between the suburbs of Montrose and Kilsyth, adjacent to Canterbury Rd.

Gladesville Primary School Yarning Circle materials
The government is helping the state’s quarries meet increasing demand for rock, sand and gravel driven by the construction of new homes, schools, hospitals and transport infrastructure.
Boral’s Montrose Quarry faced potential issues in meeting supply commitments due to sustained periods of high demand.
Earlier this year the Resources Victoria Approvals Coordination (RVAC) unit approved an administrative update which included a design change that extended the extraction area via a streamlined process boosting the available resource enough for another 8 to 10 years.
