Water and Environment · Granite and Stone Quarry Management Software

One system for benches, blasts, numbered blocks, crushed stone and buyer dispatch.

Record each bench, each blast and each squared block with its number, measurements, grade and source face. Track yard bays, crushed stone stockpiles, drill rigs, wire saws and diesel by machine. Weigh out trailers, print the delivery note, and invoice the buyer from the same ticket. Lease and permit dates sit beside the work, so the manager sees them before they matter.

  • Bench names, grade scales and block numbering entered the way your yard uses them
  • Existing block register and buyer balances migrated before go-live
  • Changes to grades, sizes and ticket formats made by GullySystem staff on request

Benches, blast logs, numbered blocks, crushed stone stock, machine hours and buyer dispatch all live in Granite and Stone Quarry Management Software, configured for each quarry by GullySystem. Every block carries its dimensions, grade and source bench. Weighbridge tickets turn into delivery notes and invoices. Lease, permit and royalty dates are kept beside the work.

Where it breaks today

What goes wrong before the software.

Block identity depends on paint and memory

A number on the stone is the only link to its bench, its dimensions and its grade. Once the paint fades, a buyer’s query about a block reaches nobody who can answer.

Yield per blast is never worked out

The blaster keeps holes and charge, the yard counts blocks, and the two lists never meet. Nobody knows which pattern gave sound blocks. Rubble goes unexplained.

Grades are set by eye and forgotten

Veins, cracks and colour bands decide the price, yet the reason for a grade is rarely noted. A disputed block comes back with no record of why it was called Grade B.

Yard bays hide what is unsold

Blocks lie in rows that nobody maps. A buyer asks for one colour and size. The supervisor walks every bay.

Rigs and saws burn diesel without a ledger

Drill rigs, wire saws, loaders and the crusher share one diesel tank. Fuel per cubic metre of block is a guess, and a failing wire saw is found by its cost.

Lease terms and royalty periods are tracked on paper

Lease renewal, permit expiry and royalty returns each have a date in a different folder. A missed date can stop the face.

How it runs

How the work flows through it, step by step.

  1. 1

    Bench plan

    The manager opens a bench with its level and face. Planned holes hang from it. The area open this month is noted.

  2. 2

    Drilling and blasting

    The drill crew records holes and depth, and the blaster records the charge, the time and the bench. Rock moved after the blast is recorded against it.

  3. 3

    Block cutting

    Each squared block receives a number, three measurements and a computed volume. Colour, source bench and the cutter’s crew are noted at the same entry.

  4. 4

    Grading

    An inspector picks the grade and the reason from your own list, adds photographs, and the block moves to a yard bay.

  5. 5

    Sale and weighing

    A buyer’s agent picks blocks by number. The trailer is weighed out, and a ticket and delivery note are printed with the block numbers listed.

  6. 6

    Invoice and follow-up

    Dispatches turn into a tax invoice. Receipts are posted. The buyer’s balance reads with the oldest dispatch first.

Modules

What is inside.

Every module can be switched on, left out or changed to match how your team already works.

Bench and face plan

Hold every bench with its level, face and the area opened this month. Blasts and blocks are tied back to the bench they came from.

Drilling and blasting log

Record holes, depth, pattern and explosive charged per blast, with the blaster’s name and the time. Rock moved afterwards is logged against the same blast.

Block register

Number each squared block and store length, width, height, computed volume, colour and source bench. Buyers pick from this list.

Grading and inspection notes

Write the grade and its reason against each block, with a photograph. A disputed block is reviewed against what was noted on the day.

Yard bays and crushed stone stock

Map which blocks sit in which bay and how many tonnes of each crushed size are stacked, so today’s ready stock is one screen.

Machine hours and maintenance

Log hour meter readings for rigs, wire saws, loaders and the crusher. Service intervals, wire and bit changes and breakdowns are kept per machine.

Haulage, loading and diesel

Record diesel issued per machine, trucks loaded at the face and trips to the crusher, then read cost per cubic metre of block.

Explosives, wire and spare stock

Track detonators, explosive, diamond wire, drill bits and spares received and issued, with reorder levels for items that stop the face if they run out.

Buyer orders and dispatch

Take buyer orders by block, size or tonne. Weigh out each trailer, print the ticket and delivery note, and close the order when the last block leaves.

Invoices and receipts

Raise tax invoices from dispatches, post receipts against them, and see each buyer’s balance. Invoices use the buyer’s country for currency and tax.

Crews and shifts

Mark attendance for drill, cutting, loading and crusher crews, assign them to a bench or shift, and compute wages and advances from the same record.

Lease, permit and royalty dates

Store lease terms, permit expiry and royalty periods with the document attached. A reminder reaches the manager before each date, and your own staff confirm which rules apply.

Solutions inside

The business modules it is built from.

Each one is also available on its own, or inside a system built for you.

  • Batch and Serial Tracking

    Each squared block holds its own number, three measurements, volume and source bench, so a buyer’s query is traced to the face it came from.

  • Quality Control

    The inspector records the grade, the reason and a photograph against the block, so a disputed grade is reviewed against the notes made that day.

  • Asset AMC Tracking

    Rigs, wire saws, loaders and the crusher each carry hour readings, service intervals, wire and bit changes and breakdown history.

  • Fuel and Driver Records

    Diesel drawn by each machine and truck is logged beside trips, giving fuel per cubic metre of block cut rather than a guess.

  • Stock Tracking and Alerts

    Detonators, explosive, diamond wire and drill bits are received and issued by item, with reorder levels for anything whose absence stops the face.

  • Order Management

    A buyer’s order lists blocks by number or crushed stone by tonne and closes only when the last trailer has been weighed out.

  • Invoice Management

    Tax invoices are raised from weighbridge dispatches, receipts are posted against them, and each buyer’s balance is shown with the oldest dispatch first.

  • Contract Management

    Lease terms, permits and royalty periods are stored with their documents and reminders, so a renewal date is known well before it arrives.

Services

How we would put it in.

Setup, data migration, integrations and anything built on top.

Who uses it

One system, each person sees their part.

For the quarry owner

Read blocks cut, blocks sold, crushed tonnes dispatched, balances by buyer and machine cost per cubic metre without calling the face.

For quarry managers

Plan benches, review blast records and yield, watch lease dates, and see which rigs or saws are idle.

For blaster and drill crew

Enter holes, depth and charge on a phone before the shot. Nothing is written up later. Memory is not a record.

For yard supervisors and inspectors

Number, measure and grade blocks, place them in bays, and answer a buyer’s agent from the register.

For weighbridge and accounts staff

Print tickets. Raise invoices, post receipts and send statements to buyers.

Reports

The numbers the owner asks for.

  • Blocks cut by bench, grade and colour, with total volume
  • Blast log with holes, charge and rock moved per bench
  • Yard stock by bay, grade and size, unsold blocks oldest first
  • Crushed stone stock and dispatch by size and day
  • Diesel and machine hours by rig, saw, loader and crusher
  • Buyer balances and dispatches with the oldest unpaid first
  • Lease, permit and royalty dates falling due
Good fit

Who this is built for.

  • Granite quarries that cut dimension blocks for processing units and exporters
  • Marble, sandstone and slate quarries that sell squared blocks by number
  • Quarries that also run a crusher for building stone and chips
  • Quarry operators working several leases or benches
  • Contract operators who cut and sell stone for a landowner
Honest answer

When it is not the right choice.

  • A small quarry that sells only rubble to a single local buyer can manage with a gate register and a bill book.
  • Operators of large metal or coal mines will find Mining Company Management Software closer, and those who cut and polish slabs in a factory will find Stone Processing Unit software closer.
Made to fit

Adapted to your business before it goes live.

You are not handed a login and left to it. The product is set up around your records, your people and the tools you already use.

Grades and block numbering

Your grade scale, colour names and the numbering used on the stone go in first, so the yard reads the same words it paints on blocks.

Bench and machine lists

Benches, drill rigs, wire saws, loaders and the crusher are entered with their hour meters and service intervals.

Ticket and delivery note formats

The weighbridge ticket and the delivery note follow your layout, with block numbers or crushed sizes listed as your buyers expect.

Existing records migrated

Block registers, buyer balances and open orders arrive from your spreadsheets or notebooks, and the yard supervisor checks a sample.

Dates and rules reviewed locally

Your office keys in lease, permit and royalty periods, and the regulator’s own wording decides what counts as due, because requirements change from one region to the next.

Hosted by GullySystem

The office, the yard and the weighbridge read the same records. Edits to grades, sizes and formats are made by GullySystem staff.

Common questions

Questions owners ask before a demo.

Can a buyer’s complaint about one block be traced to its blast?

Yes. The block row names its bench and the blast date, and the blast row lists holes and charge. Both are read together when the buyer queries a block.

Does it work for both blocks and crushed stone?

Yes. Blocks are numbered and measured one by one. Crushed sizes are counted by tonne. Both share a weighbridge ticket and an invoice.

Who records the blast, and when?

The blaster or the drill foreman enters holes, depth and charge on a phone. The time stamp is automatic, so the record is made before the shot, not after.

How are yard blocks found without walking the bays?

Each block gets a bay at grading. A search by colour, grade and size lists the matching blocks and where they lie.

Can machine cost be read per cubic metre?

Yes, for fuel and hours that are logged. Diesel drawn and hours run by each rig and saw are set against the volume of blocks cut in the same period.

Can lease and royalty dates be set up?

Yes. Dates and documents are stored with reminders. Rules differ by region. Which rules apply is decided with your own staff or regulator during implementation.

Do weighbridge tickets need re-entry for invoices?

No. Ticket fields flow into the dispatch, then the invoice. How the scale is read is agreed at the first workshop.

What happens to our existing block register?

It is loaded from your sheets or scanned notebooks before go-live. A sample of block numbers is checked against the stone lying in the yard.

Is a quote available before we commit?

Yes. A demonstration on your own block list comes first, and the quote follows as a document. Pricing follows the bench count, the crews involved and the logins needed.

If we ever stop, do our block records come with us?

Yes. The block register, blast log and invoice history leave as spreadsheet files on request, and the file layout is agreed on paper before work begins.
