Sand

Sand

a loose granular substance, typically pale yellowish brown, resulting from the erosion of siliceous and other rocks and forming a major constituent of beaches, river beds, the seabed, and deserts.

TYPES OF SAND :

1.River Sand

River sand is a naturally occurring type of sand sourced from riverbeds. What distinguishes it is its smooth, rounded particles, which make it highly workable. Due to its workability, river sand is a type of sand used in construction tasks that require precision and attention to detail, such as bricklaying, plastering, and concrete mixing. Its rounded particles make it easy to mix and place accurately, making it a popular choice for projects demanding precision.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     

2. Silica Sand

Silica sand, also known as quartz sand or industrial sand, is a granular material primarily composed of silicon dioxide (SiO2). It's a naturally occurring mineral resource valued for its high silica content and uniform grain size distribution, making it ideal for a wide range of industrial applications.
