What sets Egypt's silica sand apart is its remarkable purity and quality. High Purity: Egyptian silica sand is known for its exceptional purity, with SiO2 content often exceeding 99%. This high level of purity is a result of Egypt's unique geological formations, making its silica sand particularly desirable for specialized applications.

Archaeologist Zahi Hawass has been studying and preserving the Egyptian pyramids for decades. The area around the ancient capital city of Memphis, Egypt, located just south of modern-day Cairo along the Nile River, contains dozens of pyramids built as burial chambers for kings during the third and fourth dynasties. In 2017, Dr. Hawass was …



Ancient Egyptian limestone quarries in the Nile Valley occur in six geological formations of Palaeogene age. Samples were collected from 23 of the 48 known quarries, and analysed by thin-section petrography and X-ray fluorescence spectrometry. Results of the analyses show that the geological formations can be identified from rock texture and …







Here are some additional details about Aqareegypt Egyptian marble quarries:. The Mokattam Hills quarries are located about 10 kilometers south of Cairo.
