Processing Journey

Nine controlled steps. One consistent product.

From selective extraction to automated bagging, every tonne of Udgam silica passes through a mechanised, laboratory-monitored process chain.

01

Raw Silica Sand

Selective open-cast extraction from our own Prayagraj deposit — grade consistency begins at the mine face.

02

Screening & Washing

High-pressure screening and log washing dissolve clay binders, silts and organic impurities.

03

Removal of Oversize Material & Impurities

Oversize aggregates and tramp material are scalped off before classification.

04

Classification / Hydro Cyclone

Hydro-cyclones and up-current classifiers segregate grain fractions to exact thresholds.

05

Magnetic Separation

High-gradient magnetic separation strips iron-bearing and paramagnetic minerals.

06

Dewatering

Vibratory dewatering screens and controlled drying bring moisture down to final specification.

07

Controlled Particle Size

Multi-deck precision screening holds AFS 40–100 — custom sizes supplied as per customer requirements.

08

Finished Product

Laboratory-verified silica sand with a Certificate of Analysis on every production lot.

09

Storage / Packing / Dispatch

Moisture-proof 20 Kg and 50 Kg bags, staged and loaded for scheduled dispatch.

Storage / Packing / Dispatch — Udgam Minerals processing stage

Every stage, verified in the lab.

Sieve analysis after classification, chemistry after magnetic separation, moisture after drying — results travel with your Certificate of Analysis.
