Ukraine has significant reserves of quartz sand and exports it.
For the production of ordinary glass, quartz sand of various qualities is used, enriched or not, and for the production of quartz glass - very pure, mainly enriched quartz sand.
The state balance of mineral reserves of Ukraine considering the Gusarivka quartz sand deposit, which has various areas of application - molding and abrasive sands, sands for the glass industry.
In the northwestern region of the Ukrainian Crystalline Shield, in the basin of the Teteriv River, the Bilokrynytske and Kodrynke deposits of alluvial and fluvioglacial quartz sands are known, and in the Dnieper-Donetsk depression - the Novoselivske and Berestovenkivske deposits.
With the development of the glass industry, the need for high-quality quartz sand is constantly increasing.
Due to the distribution of quartz sands of various genetic types in Ukraine - alluvial, glacial, marine, lacustrine, aeolian and others - there are opportunities for increasing their mineral raw material base.
To this end, it is planned to conduct search, search and evaluation and exploration work for the corresponding high-quality mineral within the promising areas of the Dnieper-Donetsk Basin, the Ukrainian Crystalline Shield and other regions.
