Conclusion The high degree of purity of the quartz deposits of Wadi Mubarak area and their remarkable
geochemical characteristic (high contents of SiO

) have nominated and qualified these deposits, even without beneficiation, to
be used in hi-tech industries such as Aluminum alloy and Ferrosilicon alloy industries.
The beneficiation process by froth Floatation has qualified the quartz deposits of Wadi
Mubarak area to be used for the production of silicon carbide.
