Silica Sand
Substantial silica-sand resources are found throughout Malaysia comprising largely of natural sand deposits and ex-tin mine tailings.  The DMG has estimated that the country has some 148.4 million tonnes of silica-sand reserves located in the states of Johor, Perak, Terengganu, Kelantan, Sabah and Sarawak.  Production of silica-sand in 2007 increased to 719,221 tonnes from 512,277 tonnes produced in 2006.  They came from several active sand mining operations in Johore, Perak and Sarawak.  Most of the silica are used in the manufacturing of glass products and to a lesser extent in the production of ceramics, foundries, glasswool and water treatment materials.
