Silica sand is classified into two main types, each with distinct characteristics and applications: Wet Silica Sand: Extracted from water-saturated deposits, wet silica sand undergoes a thorough washing and drying process to remove impurities, resulting in higher purity and quality. Dry Silica Sand: Sourced from dry deposits, dry silica sand requires minimal processing, making it a more cost-effective option. However, it may contain impurities and requires careful handling during transportation. Recent developments include: August 2022: Sibelco Group acquired Echasa, a mining company that extracts silica sand at Laminoria Quarry near Vitoria in northern Spain's Basque Country and is approximately 160 km from Sibelco's nearest silica sand mine in Arija., December 2021: Badger Mining Corp. (BMC) has collaborated with TranSand Inc. to significantly increase the region's frac sand trans-loading capability. This expansion lays the groundwork for growth in North Montney to track expansion and allow for the conversion to a unit train capable of transload. It will also increase daily capacity to meet the increased demands at the well site., January 2019: U.S. Silica Holdings, Inc. has acquired a former ceramic proppant factory in Millen, GA, which will be turned into a high-end product manufacturing facility for the Company's Industrial and Specialties Products (ISP) division. The Millen facility will help to increase capacity to fulfill growing customer demand for ISPs. This new feature will help industrial customers by accelerating new product launches, improving product quality, and facilitating key product customizations.. Key drivers for this market are: Growing demand for glass, foundry, and construction applications. Infrastructure development in emerging markets.. Potential restraints include: Depletion of accessible silica sand resources. Environmental concerns associated with mining and processing.. Notable trends are: Sustainable mining practices and environmental compliance. Innovations in silica sand substitutes..

The data contain water column silica concentrations, silicic acid concentrations, and biomass-normalized biogenic silica production rates. Water samples were collected by R/V Atlantic Explorer cruises AE1218, AE1228, AE1319, and AE1322 between July of 2012 and October of 2013. The data include biogenic and lithogenic silica concentrations for particles greater than 3 um, and between 0.4 to 3 um.

These data were published in:

Krause, J.W., Brzezinski, M.A., Baines, S. B., Collier, J. L., Twining, B. S., Ohnemus, D. C. 2017. Picoplankton contribution to biogenic silica stocks and production rates in the Sargasso Sea. Global Biogeochemical Cycles 31, 762-774. doi: 10.1002/2017GB005619

Here we report the complete results of a study on the cycling of biogenic silica (bSiO2) during the P1106 CCE Long Term Ecological Research process cruise examining process related to offshore fronts. Concentrations of bSiO2 varied by 25-fold across the front, with concentrations in frontal waters 20–25% of those in coastal waters. Rates of biogenic silica production spanned an equally large range, with rates within the frontal region that were half those in the coastal regions. The results suggest that the regions of frontal interactions between eddies in the southern CCE can account for variability in diatom biomass, productivity and export over very short spatial scales that is comparable to the variability observed across the Pacific basin.

Diatoms are an important phytoplankton group in this region as they can dominate both the standing stock of phytoplankton and the rate of primary production at times. Unlike other phytoplankton groups, diatoms have an obligate requirement for silicon. Because diatoms can be important to regional primary production, there can be a strong coupling between the regional C and Si cycles. Because of this coupling, measurement of biogenic silica (bSi) production is a useful proxy to deduce the diatom-specific contribution to community rates, as silicoflagellates and radiolarians (which both use Si to build shells) are comparatively minor in biomass and grow slower than diatoms. Data were collected during cruises PTS02 and PTS03 on the Mississippi-Alabama shelf from March-July, 2016. This dataset supports the publication: Dzwonkowski, B., Greer, A.T., Briseño-Avena, C., Krause, J.W., Soto, I.M., Hernandez, F.J., Deary, A.L., Wiggert, J.D., Joung, D., Fitzpatrick, P.J., O'Brien, S.J., Dykstra, S.L., Lau, Y., Cambazoglu, M.K., Lockridge, G., Howden, S.D., Shiller, A.M., and Graham, W.M.

Related size-fractionated nitrate uptake and primary productivity data can be found in GRIIDC dataset R4.x260.000:0092. Purpose Rates of biological productivity were determined through a consortia partnership with the Alabama Center for Ecological Resilience (ACER) and Consortium for Oil Spill Exposure Pathways in Coastal River-Dominated Ecosystems (CONCORDE). The shared goal for each consortium was to understand the spatial and temporal variability in biological productivity rates. This information is critical for providing baseline information to understanding the potential effects of anthropogenic (e.g. oil spill) or natural (e.g. hurricane) disturbances on biological productivity in the Mississippi-Alabama shelf in the northern Gulf of Mexico.
