Crovan's Gate Mining Company

The Crovan's Gate Mining Company is a quarry company.

When the Skarloey Railway first opened, they owned some mines close to Crovan's Gate. In 1959, they sold the mines to the C.G. Slate Company and moved to the Skarloey Railway Slate Quarry. They continued to operate there until 2008, when the quarry ran out of slate to mine. At this time, the C.G. Slate Company had moved to the Blue Mountain Quarry to expand their operations. So they bought back the mines and reopened the mines under the original name.
