Chromite sand is a naturally occurring spinel consisting primarily of the oxides of chrome and iron. It is a by-product of ferro-chrome production and is mainly used in foundry applications and in glass production. Technical Data Sheet of Foundry Chromite sand:  CHEMICAL COMPOSITION Cr2O3 ≥46.0% SiO2 ≤1.0% FeO ≤26.5% CaO ≤0.3% MgO ≤10% AL2O3 ≤15.5% P

Chromite sand primarily for use as either a molding sand or as a core sand in the production of steel castings. Foundry grade chromite sand is derived from naturally occurring chrome ore deposits. The grains are irregularly shaped, angular and commonly with somewhat curved faces.The color is jet black with a metallic luster. Technical Data

The consolidation of the chromite market is one of the major trends being witnessed in the global chromite market 2019-2023. During March 2011, the prices of chromite started decreasing and continued till 2016. Some of the major chromite producers had to halt production owing to the decline in prices. In countries such as Turkey, Iran,
