Additional information:
Quartz sand mining.
The volume of deposits:
— glass sands — 19913 thousand tons
— construction sands — 4883 thousand tons
Forecasts:
— estimated reserves of 43.1 million tons that have passed State expertise
— author’s estimated reserves of 270 million tons
The deposit is characterized by a simple geological structure, and mining conditions are generally favorable for open-pit mining. Hydrogeological conditions determine the mining of minerals by hydro-mechanized equipment.
The mineral composition of the sands: quartz 94.68-99.23%
After gravity enrichment and magnetic separation, the sands can be used as raw materials for high-translucency products of the VS-050-1 and VS-040-1 brands, for the production of electroluminescent glass, fiberglass for electrical engineering, catalysts, laboratory, medical and perfume glass. Overburden water-glacial sands and gravel-sand deposits can be used as raw materials for road construction (drainage and frost-proof layers of road clothing and a ready-made sand-gravel mixture of road bases).
