Exporting Excellence: Zircon Sand from Nigeria by Augustina Impex Limited

Introduction

As global demand grows for materials used in high-temperature applications, precision casting, and ceramic production, zircon sand is becoming an increasingly valuable commodity. With rich deposits and a rising export capacity, Nigeria is emerging as a dependable source of zircon sand, and Augustina Impex Limited is proud to play a leading role in bringing this mineral to the global market.

What is Zircon Sand?

Zircon sand is a naturally occurring mineral composed primarily of zirconium silicate (ZrSiO₄). It is highly valued for its:

• High melting point (over 2,200°C)
• Resistance to corrosion and chemical attack
• Low thermal expansion
• High refractive index

These properties make it essential in industries such as:

• Ceramics (especially tiles and sanitaryware)
• Refractories (for furnaces and kilns)
• Foundry casting (as mold and core sand)
• Zirconia production (for high-tech coatings and abrasives)

Zircon Deposits in Nigeria

Nigeria is richly endowed with heavy mineral sand deposits along its river basins and coastal zones, particularly in Plateau, Nasarawa, Ondo, and Cross River States. These areas contain significant amounts of zircon, often found alongside ilmenite and monazite.

Despite its abundance, zircon remains an underutilized export resource, offering exciting opportunities for buyers and investors alike.
