One can think that it is the creation of the Chemin de fer du Vivarais which was at the origin of the opening of the operation. In 1984 the site was bought by the company Gerland (now Eiffage Route) and at the end of 2002, it merged with the quarry of Saint-Julien-du-Pinet, located near Yssingeaux to become the Société des Carrières of Saint-Julien. On 1 st January 2007, the Saint-Julien Careers separate. The Saint-Julien-Boutières site is attached to the Carrière des Chênes and takes its name from Basaltes de l'Ardèche. At the start of 2010, the production method at the Saint-Julien-Boutières site was completely changed. The major part of the production is carried out by campaigns, by mobile groups. Only the tertiary production and the washing of chippings are carried out on the site.
