Silica Is The World’s Second-Most Consumed Resource After Water¹.

Silica is an oxide of silicon (silicon dioxide) which is primarily found in quartzite. High Purity Quartzite (HPQ) is ideal for industrial processing.

Typically, quartz deposits are widely dispersed in nature, but the presence of ore bodies capable of yielding high-purity quartz is exceedingly rare.

Silicon, derived from high quality quartz, is the most common material for semiconductors due to its high stability as an atom, and that it doesn't break easily under high temperatures.
