Natural Resources Wales has access to this dataset through a bespoke licence issued by The Crown Estate as part of this access to the dataset. The UK has one of the largest dredging industries in the world. Marine-sourced aggregates make a vital contribution to UK aggregate supply for the construction sector and for coastal protection and land reclamation. However, activities on the UK Continental Shelf (UKCS) are currently undergoing significant change due to a changing planning regime, brought about by the Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009 and the Marine (Scotland) Act 2010, and increased pressure on the sea bed from new developments, such as renewable energy. As a result, to enhance understanding of the distribution of marine mineral resources, The Crown Estate (TCE), as owners of these resources, has commissioned British Geological Society (BGS) to produce maps of sand and gravel, as well as other mineral resources, such as coal, metallic minerals and evaporites for the UKCS. These maps provide spatial data for use in strategic planning for marine minerals and form an accessible information-base to assist protection of these non-renewable resources against sterilisation.
