The high-strength sand and gravel that MaxPure. offers are sourced from superior quality metamorphosed gneiss, composed of granite and diorite. These materials, notable for their impressive durability, are well-suited for demanding construction applications. The hardness of the material, rated at 7 on the Mohs scale, along with a compressive strength of 200 MPa, makes it a robust choice, exceeding the strength of ordinary concrete significantly. This kind of aggregate is highly sought after for its low susceptibility to weathering, contributing to the longevity of the structures it is used in. Quarrying these materials is a straightforward process, providing a spectrum of sizes suitable for various construction needs. The interlocking nature of the gravel ensures stability and strength in the construction, this sand and gravel represent an economical yet high-quality option for heavy construction, combining durability with cost-efficiency. The production and use of such materials are integral to the construction industry, particularly in regions close to urban centers where transportation costs are a consideration, as transporting aggregate over long distances can be uneconomical due to its low value relative to the high cost of transportation.
MaxPure Critical Minerals Ltd (MCML) boasts unique deposits of high-strength sand and gravel, composed of metamorphosed granite and diorite, known as gneiss. This specialty aggregate demonstrates considerable resilience, making it suitable for substantial construction due to its remarkable Mohs hardness of 7 and a compressive strength of 200 MPa—far exceeding that of high-strength concrete. Available from fine silt to large boulders, the material's interlocking quality adds to its stability and durability, resisting weathering effects that can compromise structural integrity over time. Offered at $20 per ton FOB site, this high-strength sand and gravel not only provides a robust material for construction purposes but also offers an economical solution for large-scale projects where longevity and resistance to wear are paramount. The availability and affordability of MCML’s aggregate could significantly impact the construction industry, especially in areas where high durability is a necessity, making it a valuable resource for infrastructure and commercial development projects.
