Our pebble processing operation also yields both fine and coarse quartz sands.

Austone fine quartz sand is highly sought after for the production of concrete and masonry products, it’s washed, well sorted and processed clean of vegetation. Comprised mostly of robust quartz grains below 0.6mm which are classified as sub angular to sub rounded sphericity, it’s hard, strong and durable. It is also suitable for use as fine aggregate in unbound pavements and graded asphalt.
