By one definition, sand is the most commonly found material on the surface of the planet. Yet for something so commonplace, it varies greatly from deposit to deposit and place to place. These variations in quality and consistency make all the difference to the end user. Physical and chemical properties that benefit one application can hamper another. So sourcing your sand with the end use in mind is critical to your success.
