Properties & Uses   Barite is a clean, relatively soft, virtually inert, and quite inexpensive mineral with high Specific gravity (hence used as weighing agent in drilling mud). Drilling muds account for more than 90% of the worldwide market for Barite. The properties noted for drilling muds plus its light color and high brightness (up to 90+%), low oil absorption, and wettability by oils allow Barite to be used as a filler and weighing agent. [acoustical compounds; adhesives, athletic goods (bowling balls, golf balls, tennis balls); carpet backing; friction materials; linoleum; mold release agents; paints including primer (automotive and appliance) top coats(automotive), gloss enamels, powder coatings, semi-gloss and gloss latexes, and industrial and architectural coatings; paper; radiation shielding; rope finishes; rubber; urethane foams. Barite is used as a source of BaO in glass making where it acts as a flux oxidizer, and decolorizer giving greater brilliance and clarity to the finished glass. The high SG is used in the construction industry to weigh down underwater pipelines. Barite absorbs gamma radiation and can replace lead in nuclear shields. High – purity Barite is a feedstock for the chemical industry.   Grades we offer   We offer different grades of Barites catering to Oil Drilling and Paint Industries.

Occurrence ::A mineral of secondary origin, commonly produced under tropical climatic conditions by the prolonged weathering of aluminum-bearing rocks. Also at times derived from the weathering of clay-bearing limestones. It has apparently originates as a colloidal precipitate. It may occur in place as a direct derivative of the original rock or it m ay have been transported and deposited in a sedimentary formation. In the tropics, deposits, known as laterites, consisting largely of aluminum and ferric oxides are found in t the residual soils. These vary widely in composition and purity but may at time become valuable as sources of aluminum and iron. Bauxite is not a mineral, but a rock with minerals in it. Bauxite is a sedimentary rock that is an aluminum ore. It is formed in weathered volcanic rocks. USAGES:Bauxite is used in aluminum Industries , cement, chemicals, face makeup, soda cans, dishwashers, siding for houses, and other aluminum products.  It is recycled so that it can be used over again. MINING: Bauxite consists of 45-60% aluminum oxide, 12-30% water, and various other impurities. Bauxite is typically mined in open-pits and either processed . The water in bauxite is taken out of the ore.  This leaves a white powder that is called alumina which is another name for aluminum oxide.  Alumina is made into aluminum.

Barite is a mineral composed of barium sulfate, BaSO4. It is usually colorless or milky white, but can be almost any color, depending on the impurities trapped in the crystals during their formation. Barite is relatively soft, measuring 3-3.5. It is unusually heavy for a non-metallic mineral. The high density is responsible for its value in many applications. Barite is chemically inert and insoluble. It is a volcanic deposit and in India its occurrence is limited to Mangampeta deposits of Andhra Pradesh. It estimates a reserve of over 100 million tons and it is the single largest deposit of its kind in the World. Most barite is mined from layers of sedimentary rock which formed when barite precipitated onto the bottom of the ocean. Some smaller mines utilize barite from veins, which formed when barium sulfate was precipitated from hot subterranean waters. In some cases, barite is a by-product of mining lead, zinc, silver or other metal ores The principal use for barite is as a “weighting agent” in oil and natural gas drilling. In this process, barite is crushed and mixed with water and other materials. It is then pumped into the drill hole. The weight of this mixture counteracts the force of the oil and gas when it is released from the ground. This allows the oil and gas rig operators to prevent the explosive release of the oil and gas from the ground. However, the consumption in drilling "mud" fluctuates from year to year, as it is dependent on the amount of exploration drilling for oil and gas, which in turn depends on oil and gas prices. Mining is semi-mechanized. It starts with stripping of the over-burden which exposes the ore-body. Being a relatively soft material barite is easily sized in a jaw crusher yielding the right size for grinding in Raymond Mills. The milled product is collected in bags of 50 kg / 1500 kg and stacked in warehouse.

Wollastonite is chemically a Calcium Meta Silicate (CaSiO3), it is a naturally occurring white & acicular (needle shaped) mineral, with mohs hardness of 4.5. In addition to Wollastonite’s unique morphology, it is alkaline, inert, has low loss on ignition, low water solubility, low co-efficient of linear thermal expansion and a melting point of 15400c. It also improves tear strength, dielectric properties and retains mechanical properties at elevated temperatures.

Barite is a mineral composed of barium sulfate (BaSO4). The high specific gravity of barite makes it suitable for a wide range of industrial, medical and manufacturing uses. Barite also serves as the principal ore of barium.
