SnapshotThe River Ridge Sand Mine produces 30/140-mesh frac sand, which is primarily processed into 30/70-mesh and 70/140-mesh frac sand products.

The River Ridge Sand Mine operates under five permits. The property operates under a state of Arkansas Minor Source Air Permit, which does not have an expiration date. There are no formal state or federal reclamation plans or permits required for the operation.

Before ProFrac Holdings acquired the River Ridge operation in 2023, it was owned by the private company, so no public data was available.
