Welcome to
Egyptian silica sand is a type of special silica sand used in various industries and is extracted from
quarries in the Egyptian desert. Egyptian silica sand is characterized by a high purity level, with the
concentration of silica exceeding 99%, and it contains a small amount of impurities and other
minerals.
Egyptian silica sand is used in many industries such as glass, ceramics, electronics, chemicals, oil and
gas, construction, metals, paints, paper, food, and pharmaceuticals. It is also used in the production
of glass sand, fiberglass, and crystalline silica Egyptian silica sand is considered one of the most important mineral resources in Egypt, and it plays
a vital role in stimulating the Egyptian economy by providing job opportunities and increasing
exports. It is known for its high quality and low cost compared to similar products available in
international markets.

Our methods used to extract Egyptian silica sand.
EGYPTIAN SILICA SAND IS EXTRACTED FROM MINES IN THE EASTERN DESERT,AND SEVERAL METHODS ARE USED TO EXTRACT THE SAND, INCLUDING:
Electromagnetic method: This method is used to extract silicon sand by passing an electric current through
the sand to separate different metals from each other.
Hydraulic crane mining: Hydraulic cranes are used to mine Egyptian silica sand in areas where the
sand is located at deep depths.
Excavation with machinery: Sand is extracted using heavy machinery such as excavators and bulldozers.
This method is used in areas that are easily accessible.
Manual excavation: Sand is extracted by manual digging in areas where heavy machinery cannot
reach.
The methods used to extract Egyptian silica sand vary depending on the location,
geographic, economic, and technological conditions. After the sand is extracted, it is
processed to remove impurities and dust and converted into a final product that can be
used in various industries.
