Boral's Peppertree Quarry is located upon significant   granodiorite deposits near the NSW Southern Tablelands town of Marulan. The Operations play an essential role in supplying aggregate-based building and construction materials to industry across NSW and the ACT.

Peppertree Quarry, (a hard rock aggregates quarry) began operations in early 2014 following a decade-long planning and construction process. The quarry was developed as a replacement resource for the Penrith Lakes quarries at Emu Plains in western Sydney, which ceased extraction during September 2015.

The quarry lands cover 650 hectares to the north of the Marulan South Limestone Mine. Under existing approvals, the granodiorite resource underlying 70 hectares of this land is being extracted.

Up to 3.5 million tonnes of aggregates per year can be produced by the quarry at peak production. Materials are transported via rail to terminals at Maldon, St Peters and Enfield, from which they are distributed to customers via road. With activity taking place 24 hours a day, seven days per week, the quarry supports around 100 local jobs, including contractors.

As part of the Project Approval for the Peppertree Quarry, Boral was required to establish a community consultative committee (CCC). 

The CCC is an advisory group which consists of a representative of Goulburn Mulwaree Council and at least three local residents. Boral also supplies two representatives to the CCC.

Independently chaired, the role of the CCC is to offer Boral input from the community perspective on matters of environmental performance and community relations. Issues of concern and feedback can be raised with the site by the CCC representatives.

The CCC first met during 2008 and has continued to meet at least twice a year ever since.
