DESCRIPTION:
Gypsum is the mineral that includes in its
structure Sulfate ion, which makes it a sulfate
mineral, and of all the sulfate minerals, Gypsum
is the most common. Gypsum is composed of
hydrated calcium sulfate, and its chemical
formula is CaSO4.2H2O.
Usage:
• Gypsum is used in the manufacturing of
cement, wallboard, soil conditioning, as a
hardening Retarder in Portland cement.
• Constructing buildings
• In making pottery and moulds
• In dental appliances to make casts and
moulds and impression material
• Manufacturing plaster of Paris
• Conditioning soil
Advantages:
• Very High whiteness
• Extracted from high quality sinai rocks
Packing:
• Loose

Silica sand, also known as quartz sand, white sand, or industrial sand, is made up of two main elements: silica and oxygen. Specifically, silica sand is made up of silicon dioxide (SiO2).

The silica sand extracted from El Zafarana Area is attributed to such area as it is considered one of the best locations for extracting Silica Sand in the Middle East.

Applications:

- Glassmaking

- Ceramics & Refractories

- Water Filtration

- Golf courses & sports fields

- Construction materials

- Foundry Casting

- Artificial Grass

Our calcium carbonate (CaCO3) is an ideal choice because of its purity, high calcium content.

As our limestone goes up to +98% whiteness, +96% brightness

It is used in many industries such as feed industries, water treatment, building materials, glass fiber glass applications and Soil treatment.
