Bentonite is a remarkable natural resource that plays a critical role in many industries. As industries continue to seek sustainable and effective materials, bentonite is poised to remain a key player in the global market. For customers looking for reliable, high-quality bentonite, our company offers tailored solutions that meet a wide range of needs. Introduction to Bentonite Bentonite is a highly versatile clay known for its unique properties, including swelling, viscosity, and adsorption. Formed from the weathering of volcanic ash, bentonite contains predominantly montmorillonite clay minerals. Its unique properties make it essential in various industries, ranging from oil drilling to health and beauty. Properties of Bentonite Bentonite's key properties stem from its mineralogical composition. It can absorb substantial amounts of water, which allows it to expand and form gel-like masses. This makes it extremely useful as a sealing agent, binder, and purification substrate. The typical elemental makeup includes high levels of silica and aluminum, with smaller amounts of calcium, magnesium, and iron, which confer its ability to bond and react with other substances. Bentonite Formula and Elemental Composition: Bentonite is primarily composed of montmorillonite, a type of clay mineral that belongs to the larger family of phyllosilicates. Montmorillonite itself can vary slightly in chemical composition, but generally, it can be represented by a simplified formula: Na,Ca0.33(Al,Mg)2(Si4O10)(OH)2nH2O. The elemental makeup of bentonite includes a mix of several primary elements which contribute to its properties: Silicon (Si, (Aluminum (Al), Magnesium (Mg), Calcium (Ca), Sodium (Na), Oxygen (O) and Hydrogen (H). Mining and Production of Bentonite The mining of bentonite is a meticulous process that involves extracting material from open-pit mines. The extracted bentonite is then refined and processed into various grades, depending on its intended use. Major bentonite mining regions include the Western United States, Greece, and Australia, where mining techniques are designed to minimize environmental impact while maximizing yield. Applications of Bentonite Bentonite has a wide range of applications due to its versatile properties. It is used in drilling mud for oil and gas wells, as a binder in the foundry industry, in environmental applications such as landfill liners, and as a carrier in fertilizers. It also finds applications in personal care products, due to its absorbent and viscosity-modifying properties.

Quartz: Quartz is one of the most well-known minerals on the earth with numerous uses. Sand, which is composed of tiny Quartz pebbles, is the primary ingredient for the manufacture of glass. We feel pride in introducing ourselves as a leading Quartz Lumps Exporters from India. Mineral-grade packaging is provided for safe and easy delivery of Quartz Lumps. We welcome orders from Middle East, East Asian and several other countries and ensure timely shipment. Applications : It is used as an abrasive for sandblasting, grinding glass and cutting of soft stones. Quartz powder is also used in ceramic tiles along with feldspar.

We are manufacturer and exporter of potassium felspar and sodium feldspar. We have lumps, power and grains.
