The catch-all end of extraction. One code clears any useful size, 08990, other mining and quarrying not elsewhere classified, and the named codes beneath it (stone quarrying, gravel and sand pits, clay) each sit in the hundreds.
How to read SIC 08990
SIC 08990 reads as division 08 (other mining and quarrying), group 089, class 0899, then the full five digits, inside section B, mining and quarrying. A company picks its own codes, up to four, and Companies House does not check them, so 08990 is the company's own description of what it does, and 762 list it first where 886 list it anywhere.
Who sells into division 08
Plant and heavy machinery dealers sell into this division, along with the finance and insurance behind that plant. Haulage operators, aggregate buyers and environmental consultants all have a reason to know who is active.
About SIC 08990
How many UK companies use SIC code 08990?
886 active UK companies list 08990 (Other mining and quarrying n.e.c.) among their registered SIC codes. Each company may register up to four. Of those, 762 put it first. The figures come from the August 2026 Companies House register snapshot, and count active companies only.
Why does 08990 have more companies than the specific quarrying codes?
Because it is the catch-all for the division and companies reach for it when nothing else looks exact. That is common across SIC: the n.e.c. codes absorb everything that does not obviously belong elsewhere. It means a list built only on the named codes will miss most of the sector, so take the division rather than one code.
