What is Quartzite?

Quartzite is a metamorphic rock renowned for its exceptional fire resistance and heat resistance. It is a completely ecological material, free from radiation and harmful substances, making it a reliable choice for various industrial applications.

Quartzite – A Key Resource for Ferro Silicon Production

Bhutan is blessed with rich mineral reserves, and quartzite is one of its most valuable resources. The mining industry in Bhutan has grown significantly since the 1970s, catering to the increasing demand for minerals and raw materials.

Applications of Metallurgical Quartzite:

Quartzite is widely used in numerous industrial sectors, including:

Ferroalloy Production: Essential for manufacturing Ferro Silicon.
Silica Products: Used in high-purity silica applications
Fire-Resistant Coatings: Enhances heat protection in industrial settings.
Acid-Resistant Mixtures: Acid-Resistant Mixtures.
Concrete Products & Mixtures: Strengthens construction materials.
Induction Furnace Pots: Ideal for high-temperature operations.
Lining for Pouring Ladles: Lining for Pouring Ladles.
Heat Generating Units : Optimized for thermal applications.
Gunning Mixes: Used in refractory applications.
