We have 2 grades with very high quality of silica sand:

2. Silica Sand Grade 1
   • Has very high percent of silicon dioxide (SiO₂), around 99.56%.
   • Very low percent of iron oxide (Fe2O3), around 0.014%.
3. Silica Sand Grade 2
   • Also has high percent of silicon (SiO₂), ranging from 99.4% to 99.6%.
   • Has low percent of iron oxides (Fe2O3), ranging from 0.015% to 0.025%.
