About us

Over A Century Of Expertise In Silver Sand Extraction

Zilverzand Exploitatie Beaujean B.V. is a family-owned company that has been active since 1905 in the extraction of silver sand in the Parkstad Limburg area. Jozef Beaujean, the grandfather of the current owner drs. A.M.J. Beaujean, started extracting silver sand on a small scale in 1905. The silver sand was extracted by hand and transported by horse and carriage to customers near the quarry. Due to coal mining in the region, a railway line was constructed nearby, enabling delivery to customers at greater distances. In 1914, Philips was supplied with silver sand for the production of light bulbs.
