An exceptional opportunity to acquire 207± acres of strategically positioned rock and gravel reserves located in the heart of one of southeastern Oklahoma's most productive aggregate mining corridors. Situated just minutes from heavily traveled U.S. Highway 69 between the communities of Atoka and Stringtown, this property offers the rare combination of valuable geological resources, excellent transportation access, and a location surrounded by established commercial quarry operations.
Positioned directly along the massive and geologically significant Black Knob Ridge, this property sits within an area recognized for producing high-quality limestone that has supplied the construction and infrastructure industries throughout Oklahoma and surrounding states for decades. According to the seller, the quarry currently produces red shale suitable for a wide range of commercial aggregate applications.
The property's reserves may be processed into numerous marketable products including:
• Crushed stone
• Coarse concrete aggregate
• Road base material
• General construction aggregate
• Infrastructure and highway materials
• Commercial fill products
These products continue to experience strong regional demand driven by county road construction, municipal infrastructure improvements, commercial development, residential growth, and industrial expansion throughout Oklahoma and North Texas.
Established Mining District
This offering lies within an active and proven mining district where multiple nationally recognized aggregate producers have established long-term operations. The immediate corridor of Township 2 South, Range 12 East includes several permitted mining operations, including Amrize's Stringtown Quarry, demonstrating the long-term commercial viability of this geologic formation.
The property's location within this established mining corridor provides buyers confidence that the area has already attracted substantial industry investment due to the quality and consistency of its limestone deposits.

According to the seller, the property has been operated by a family-owned mining business that has successfully marketed red rock products from the site. The seller also has historical income statements available for qualified buyers, providing valuable operational insight during due diligence.
