  2. What makes quarts expensive? • Quartz is one of the most useful natural materials. Its usefulness can be linked to its physical and chemical properties. It has a hardness of seven on the Mohs Scale which makes it very durable. It is chemically inert in contact with most substances. It has electrical properties and heat resistance that make it valuable in electronic products. Its luster, color and diaphaneity make it useful as a gemstone and also in the making of glass.

  3. Uses of Quartz in Glass Making- Geological processes have occasionally deposited sand that are composed of almost 100% quartz grains. These deposits have been identified and produced as sources of high purity silica sand. These sands are used in the glassmaking industry. Quartz sand is used in the production of container glass, flat plate glass, specialty glass and fiberglass. http://www.palashminerals.com/quartz-pebbles-exporters-in-india/

  4. Uses of Quartz as an Abrasive • The high hardness of quartz, seven on the Mohs Scale, makes it harder than most other natural substances. As such it is an excellent abrasive material. Quartz sands and finely ground silica sand are used for sand blasting, scouring cleansers, grinding media, and grit for sanding and sawing. • http://www.palashminerals.com/quartz-grains-manufacturers-in-india/

  5. Uses of Quartz as a Foundry Sand -Quartz is very resistant to both chemicals and heat. It is therefore often used as a foundry sand. With a melting temperature higher than most metals it can be used for the molds and cores of common foundry work. Refractory brick are often made of quartz sand because of its high heat resistance. Quartz sand is also used as a flux in the smelting of metals. • http://www.palashminerals.com/quartz-powder-exporters-in-india/

  6. Uses in the Petroleum Industry -Quartz sand has a high resistance to being crushed. In the petroleum industry sand slurries are forced down oil and gas wells under very high pressures in a process known ashydraulic fracturing. This high pressure fractures the reservoir rocks and the sandy slurry injects into the fractures. The durable sand grains hold the fractures open after the pressure is released. http://www.palashminerals.com/

  7. Many Other Quartz Sand Uses • Quartz sand is used as a filler in the manufacture of rubber, paint and putty. Screened and washed, carefully sized quartz grains are used as filter media and roofing granules. Quartz sands are used for traction in the railroad and mining industries. These sands are also used in recreation on golf courses, volleyball courts, baseball fields, children's sand boxes and beaches. • http://www.palashminerals.com/talcum-powder-manufacturers-in-india/

  8. Uses of Quartz Crystals • High quality quartz crystals are single-crystal silica with optical or electronic properties that make them useful for specialty purposes. USGS estimates that about ten billion quartz crystals are used every year. • http://www.palashminerals.com/dolomite-powder-exporters-in-india/

  9. Quartz as a Gemstone • Quartz makes an excellent gemstone. It is hard, durable and usually accepts a brilliant polish. Popular varieties of quartz that are widely used as gems include: amethyst, citrine, rose quartz, and aventurine. Agate and jasper are also varieties of quartz with a microcrystalline structure. • http://www.palashminerals.com/mica-minerals-manufacturers-in-india/

  10. Special Silica Stone Uses • "Silica stone" is an industrial term for materials such as quartzite, novaculite and other microcrystalline quartz rocks. These are used to produce abrasive tools, deburring media, grinding stones, hones, oilstones, stone files, tube-mill liners and whetstones. • http://www.palashminerals.com/silica-sand-exporters-in-india/

  11. Quartz used in clocks -Quartz maintains a precise frequency standard, which helps regulate the movement of the clock, making the timepieces very accurate. Quartz is used mainly in jewelry and ornaments. Some people attribute medical healing properties to quartz crystals but this remains unproven. • We are internationally active in Ceramic Raw Material Manufacturers in India, Glass Raw Materials Manufacturers in India,
