Description

Prime Investment in an Opportunity Zone – 55.48 Acres This unique 55.48-acre site in Glades County offers a rare combination of investment potential and permitted mining operations. Conveniently located on State Road 80—just 12 miles east of LaBelle and 20 miles west of Clewiston—the property is situated for both accessibility and future growth. The parcel includes a 22-acre wet retention area (mine) and 2.86 acres of wetlands, with a SFWMD Mining Permit (Environmental Resource Permit No. 22-00276-P, would need to be renewed) for the Mid Oaks Mine project. The approved mining plan allows for on-site dewatering and a rock-washing operation, supported by two monitoring wells already in place. Beneath the surface, the land is rich with valuable materials including lime rock, silica sand, a 5–7' layer of fine conch shell, and other high-quality aggregates—verified by the seller and the previous engineer-owner who played a key role in securing the permits. While there are no permanent structures or roads on the property, extensive due diligence materials are available for review, including a boundary survey, permit documents, soil boring reports, and monitoring well data. With its Opportunity Zone designation, active mining authorization, and wealth of natural resources, this property presents a compelling opportunity for investors, developers, and mining operators alike.
