The mineral industry of Seychelles consists mostly of production of such construction materials as clay, coral, sand, and stone.[1] Seychelles is not a globally significant mineral producer or consumer.[1] In 2006, imports of mineral fuels accounted for about 27% of the value of total imports.[1]
As of 2006, Seychelles was estimated to produce about 210,000 metric tons per year (t/yr) of gravel and crushed stone, 93,000 t/yr of granite, and 8,100 t/yr of sand.[1]
Civil Construction Company Ltd., Gondwana Granite, and United Concrete Products (Seychelles) Ltd. produce construction materials.[1] These companies are privately owned.[1]
