A Quality Answer to Gumushane's Industrial Sand Needs
Located in the mountainous geography of northeastern Anatolia, Gumushane is a small yet strategically important province with a mining heritage and growing infrastructure investments. Urban development in the central district, the agricultural potential of Kelkit, tourism investments in Torul, and the natural resources of Kürtün collectively generate industrial sand demand across various sectors in the province.
Construction Sector and Quartz Sand Applications
Ongoing residential projects and public building construction in Gumushane's central district are increasing the consumption of construction chemicals. Quartz sand is used as the primary raw material for exterior cladding, facade molding, and floor screed applications. Say Quartz's quartz sand options in 12 different grain sizes meet the varied requirements of construction projects in Gumushane.
Kelkit district, as the most populous district of Gumushane, is a hub where construction activities are intense. In the Şiran district, materials containing quartz sand are also in demand for residential and commercial building construction. In Köse district's rural construction projects, quartz sand is needed for molding sand and exterior facade applications.
Mining and Sandblasting Operations
Gumushane continues its historical mining tradition today through gold and silver mining. Sandblasting sand is used for equipment maintenance and metal surface cleaning at ore processing facilities. Say Quartz's silica sands in 7 different granulometries offer suitable products for the sandblasting and surface preparation needs of these facilities.
Mining activities in Kürtün district and equipment maintenance processes related to energy investments in Torul also consume silica sand.
Water Treatment and Filter Sand
Gumushane's mountainous terrain makes drinking water supply and treatment a critical matter. Filter sand is regularly renewed at treatment facilities in the central district and Kelkit. Say Quartz produces 11 different types of filter sand and offers these products alongside complementary materials such as Hydroanthracite and Activated Carbon.
Rural drinking water projects in Şiran and Köse districts require filter sand for compact treatment units. Filter sands are also used in the treatment of water resources fed by reservoir lakes in Torul and Kürtün districts.
Municipal Services and Seasonal Needs
Gumushane's harsh winter conditions make the use of traction sand essential. The risk of icing is high at mountain passes on the Trabzon-Gumushane-Erzincan highway and along the Kelkit-Şiran route. Municipalities and highway departments stock traction sand throughout the winter.
Artificial turf field facilities and children's playgrounds in the central district can also be equipped with Say Quartz products. Artificial turf field sand and playground sand are among the essential materials for the city's sports and recreation infrastructure.
