Ghazi Sand Mine Location, Routes, Distances & Visit Guide
Quick answer: Ghazi Sand Mine and Ghazi Sand Supply Company are located in Ghazi, near Tarbela Dam, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan.
The Ghazi Sand Mine office and Ghazi Sand Supply Company office are located in the same building, immediately beside the sand mine. They are not two separate locations. Their physical location is the same, while their business functions are different.
The mine office handles mine and source-side activities, while Ghazi Sand Supply Company handles customer orders, sand supply coordination, transportation arrangements and delivery to construction sites.
This guide explains where the Ghazi Sand Mine and the adjoining supply office are located, how to reach them, the approximate distances from important reference points, and what customers should know before planning a visit or arranging a commercial sand delivery.
The route and distance information in this article is based on Google Maps route measurements together with the first-hand industry experience of Kamran Shahid, who has been working in the sand-supply and construction-material industry for approximately 11 years.
Ghazi Sand Mine and Ghazi Sand Supply Company: Same Location
Customers searching online may use different terms such as Ghazi Sand Mine, Ghazi Sand Supply Company, Ghazi Sand Mine office, Ghazi Sand Supply office, or Ghazi plaster sand supplier. These terms can sometimes create confusion because the mine and supply company have different business responsibilities.
Physically, however, the two offices are located in the same building immediately beside the sand mine.
| Office / Operation | Main Function |
|---|---|
| Ghazi Sand Mine Office | Mine and source-side activities |
| Ghazi Sand Supply Company Office | Customer orders, supply coordination and delivery arrangements |
| Physical location | Same building, immediately beside the sand mine |
This is an important point for customers and contractors. If you are looking for the Ghazi Sand Supply Company office, you do not need to travel to a separate city office and then make another journey to the mine. The supply office and mine office are located together at the source.
Where Is Ghazi, Near Tarbela?
Ghazi is located in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa near Tarbela Dam. The wider area is associated with the Indus River, Tarbela Dam and the Ghazi-Tarbela corridor.
The Lawrencepur-Tarbela road is an important connection for the area. Government of Pakistan planning documents describe the Lawrencepur-Tarbela Road as a route beginning at Lawrencepur/Tarbela Chowk on GT Road N-5 and continuing toward Ghazi.
The wider area is also connected with major infrastructure around Tarbela and Ghazi Barotha. These regional connections make Ghazi an important reference point for people travelling toward the Tarbela area.
For someone travelling to the Ghazi Sand Mine, the most useful route references are Ghazi Interchange, Ghazi, Tarbela Chowk and Lawrencepur.
Reaching Ghazi Sand Mine from the M-1 Motorway
For private visitors travelling from Islamabad and nearby areas, the M-1 Motorway provides an important route toward Ghazi through Ghazi Interchange.
Ghazi Interchange is located on the M-1 and provides access toward Ghazi and the Tarbela area. After leaving the motorway at Ghazi Interchange, the journey continues toward Ghazi and then toward the local mine area.
Based on the Google Maps route measurement used for this guide, the approximate distance from Ghazi Interchange to the Ghazi Sand Mine and adjacent offices is 13 km.
Important: The 13 km figure is an approximate practical route measurement, not an official government road-distance figure. The actual distance displayed by Google Maps can vary depending on the selected route and current road conditions.
From Tarbela Chowk to the Ghazi Sand Mine
Tarbela Chowk is another useful reference point when travelling toward the mine.
From Tarbela Chowk to the actual Ghazi Sand Mine and adjoining offices, the local route is approximately 6.5 km, based on Google Maps and local route experience.
The final section of the journey is different from travelling on a motorway or major highway. Access close to the actual mining area can involve rough or off-road conditions.
For that reason, a person visiting the mine for the first time should not assume that the final kilometres will have the same road conditions as the main highway journey.
Distance from Rawat T Chowk
Rawat is an important reference point for customers travelling from Islamabad and Rawalpindi.
Based on the route measurements used by the company:
T Chowk, Rawat to Tarbela Chowk: approximately 112 km one way.
Adding approximately 6.5 km from Tarbela Chowk to the mine gives an approximate total of:
T Chowk, Rawat to Ghazi Sand Mine / Office: approximately 118.5 km one way.
These figures should be treated as approximate route distances. The actual driving distance can vary according to the starting point, route selected, road conditions and traffic.
Commercial Sand Truck Route
The practical route used by a private visitor is not necessarily the same as the route used for commercial sand transportation.
For the company's supply operations, commercial sand trucks generally use the GT Road/N-5 route toward Lawrencepur and Tarbela, followed by the local route toward the mine.
The Lawrencepur-Tarbela road is documented by the Government of Pakistan as an important connection between Lawrencepur/Tarbela Chowk on GT Road N-5 and Ghazi.
This route is relevant to commercial supply because the supply operation involves loading sand at the source and arranging onward transportation to the customer's destination.
A commercial truck journey can take considerably longer than a private car journey. Depending on traffic, loading arrangements, road conditions, vehicle availability and other transport factors, a complete truck movement may take approximately 6 to 10 hours.
The 6 to 10 hour figure is an operational estimate, not a guaranteed travel time.
Lawrencepur and GT Road Reference Point
For customers approaching from the GT Road side, Lawrencepur/Tarbela Chowk is an important reference point.
Government road documentation identifies the Lawrencepur-Tarbela connection from Lawrencepur/Tarbela Chowk on N-5 toward Ghazi.
According to the local route measurements used by Ghazi Sand Supply Company, the mine and adjoining offices are approximately 28 km from the GT Road Sanjwal/Lawrencepur reference area used locally for route planning.
Because local reference names and map points can differ, customers arranging a commercial sand load should confirm the current route with the supply office rather than relying only on a written distance.

Private Visitors and Commercial Trucks
One of the most useful things to understand before travelling is that private visitors and commercial sand trucks may use different practical routes.
A customer travelling in a private car can plan the journey using the M-1 and Ghazi Interchange, followed by the local route toward the mine.
Commercial sand transportation is planned differently because trucks are operating as part of a loading and delivery process. The supply company coordinates the customer requirement, vehicle arrangements, loading and onward transportation according to the order.
Therefore, customers arranging a bulk sand order do not necessarily need to travel to the mine themselves. The supply company can coordinate transportation and delivery arrangements from the source.
What Should You Know Before Visiting the Mine?
- The mine and supply offices are at the same physical location.
- Both offices are in the same building immediately beside the sand mine.
- Their business functions are different even though their physical location is the same.
- The final access route to the mine is different from travelling on the main motorway or GT Road.
- The distances in this article are approximate.
- Travel time can change because of traffic, road conditions and vehicle type.
- If you are arranging a commercial sand load, it is better to coordinate with the supply office before sending a vehicle to the source.
These points are particularly useful for contractors, project representatives and customers visiting the area for the first time.
Why the Same-Location Setup Matters for Sand Supply
Having the supply office immediately beside the source provides a direct connection between the mine and customers.
Ghazi Sand Supply Company can coordinate customer requirements from the source location, including order communication, supply planning, transportation arrangements and delivery coordination.
The company's supply focus is Ghazi Sand for plaster work and finishing applications. The product is positioned specifically for plastering and finishing rather than being presented as a general-purpose material for every type of construction work.
This clear product focus helps customers understand what material they are ordering and the intended application of the sand.

Final Summary
The Ghazi Sand Mine and Ghazi Sand Supply Company are located at the same physical site in Ghazi, near Tarbela Dam, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
