Mining & Minerals
Mining industrial minerals has been one of the first activities since Reliance was founded. Quartz has been Reliance’s longest-standing mined mineral for export, making it a global supplier to the Silicon & Ferro Alloy industries. Reliance is also a national dominant player in the mining of Phosphate Rock & Dolomite. Reliance has now taken on a more sustainable stance by applying its mining experience in the recycling of building materials & decarbonizing the industry.
We have been a leading Quartz exporter since the year 2000. We have established a strong foothold in the market by securing long-term supply agreements with our customers, partnering with all of the stakeholders in the Quartz supply chain from all quartz quarry owners in the Red Sea area, to bulk transporters & loading ports such as Abo Ghosoun, Safaga & Damietta. Being a quality driven institution, our facilities are equipped with state-of-the-art specialized quartz laboratories including an ICP lab that analyzes all trace elements in Quartz ensuring that customers’ required specifications are met.

Dolomite is most commonly used as a premium aggregate for ready mix concrete, but we have developed our product range throughout the years to be suitable to a diverse range of applications that has allowed us to tap into new high growth industries like glass as well as specific infrastructure applications like sub-bases for roads, offshore dredging & canal linings.

As we continuously seek to diversify our mining & minerals portfolio by swiftly applying its know-how to other industrial minerals. In 2019, we started a phosphate crushing operation for the nation’s leading phosphate rock exporters. We have processed phosphate rock grades that vary from P2O5 20% to P2O5 31%.

By virtue of serving the cement & mining industries, Basalt, a volcanic rock rich in iron, magnesium & calcium has become one of the main minerals we produce & trade. It was found that basalt is a typical raw material that can replace clay in producing Portland cement clinker as a source of aluminum silicate. It is used to make the base for roads & pavements and frequently used for drainage projects. Basalt also improves the strength & durability of concrete.
