Diatomaceous earth.

American Diatomite, Inc. (ADI) has world class Diatomaceous Earth mining claims for sale in the State of Nevada, USA. Diatomaceous Earth (DE) can be mined on the surface and is classified as an open pit mining operation.

This DE amorphous silica product is used for thousands of different filtering and manufacturing purposes. American Diatomite open pit mining property will produce a super pure (99.999) silica product for manufacturing solar cells or silica gel.

This small piece of raw, compact DE is representative of what you can expect to see prior to any type of manufacturing process.
