In the heart of Alberta’s oil-sands region, Parsons Creek is located just north of Fort McMurray, Alberta in the Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo.

Parsons Creek is a joint venture by Graymont and Lehigh Hanson Materials Limited. Both are leaders in the production of construction stone and limestone products throughout North America.

The Saint-Marc-des-Carrières facility supplies construction aggregates to the Portneuf area of Quebec, chemical-grade calcium carbonate to the agricultural, animal-feed and industrial markets in the Greater Québec City region, as well as stone blocks for dimension stone suppliers.

Other products available at this site include riprap for retaining walls and railway ballast.

The demolition and dismantling of equipment at Graymont shuttered Pavilion plant was completed during 2018. The lime operations we indefinitely idled in 2016, due to a combination of poor market conditions, an uncompetitive cost structure and limited stone resources, and were permanently closed in late 2017.
