Industrial Minerals
Industrial Minerals
A broad range of Egyptian industrial minerals and raw materials — dolomite, aggregates, quartz, phosphate rock, basalt, limestone, lime, feldspar, talc, gypsum, salt and silica sand — graded to specification for industry, construction and agriculture.
Minerals We Export
Dolomite
Calcium-magnesium carbonate — used as construction aggregate, to improve agricultural soil and as a source of magnesium.
Aggregates
Granular sand, gravel and crushed stone — the main ingredients of concrete and asphalt and base layers for roads and foundations.
Quartz
Hard crystalline silicon dioxide (SiO₂) — used in jewelry, glass-making and electronics, and a major component of granite and sand.
Phosphate Rock (P₂O₅)
Sedimentary rock rich in phosphate minerals for fertilizers. High-grade >26%, medium 17–26%, low <16% P₂O₅.
Basalt
Dark, fine-grained volcanic rock — hard and durable, widely crushed as aggregate for roads, concrete and asphalt.
Limestone
Sedimentary calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) — supplied as lumps, granules and powder.
Hydrated & Quick Lime
Quicklime (CaO) and hydrated lime Ca(OH)₂ from slaking quicklime with water — highly reactive, for construction and treatment.
Feldspar
Aluminosilicate rock-forming minerals making up ~60% of the Earth’s crust — used in glass and ceramics.
Talc
A soft mineral used in plastics, rubber, ceramics, paints, cosmetics, pulp & paper and agriculture.
Raw Gypsum
Natural calcium sulfate dihydrate (CaSO₄·2H₂O) — for agriculture, cement retardation and food (tofu coagulant).
Salt
Edible, animal, raw, one-washed, double-washed, rock and industrial salt grades.
Silica Sand
≥95% SiO₂, <0.6% iron oxide — graded for glass, foundry, frac, filtration, construction and recreational use.
Silica Sand Grades
Glass Sand
>99% silica with low iron for clear, strong glass.
Foundry Sand
High fusion point for metal-casting moulds and cores.
Frac Sand
Durable, crush-resistant grains to prop open fractures in oil & gas wells.
Filtration Sand
Uniform grain size for water and sewage treatment.
Construction Sand
For mortar, concrete and other building materials.
Recreational Sand
Chosen for texture and colour for golf bunkers and sandboxes.
