QUARTZ BASED INDUSTRIES
(QUARTZ POWDER, SILICA SAND,
SILICA RAMMING MASS & FUSED SILICA)

[CODE NO. 1799]

Silica is the name given to a group of minerals composed of silicon and oxygen, the two most abundant elements in theearth's crust. Silica is found commonly in the crystalline state and rarely in an amorphous state. It is composed of oneatom of silicon and two atoms of oxygen resulting in the chemical formula SiO2 Sand consists of small grains or particlesof mineral and rock fragments. Although these grains may be of any mineral composition, the dominant component ofsand is the mineral quartz, which is composed of silica (silicon dioxide). Other components may include aluminium,feldspar and iron-bearing minerals. Sand with particularly high silica levels that is used for purposes other thanconstruction is referred to as silica sand or industrial sand.
