Other Cowra Products
The Cowra quarry also produces washed, high grade, fine silica sand. The high silica content enables customers to utilise the sand in specialty concrete situations, including scientific laboratory walls where low radiation absorption is required. It is widely utilised in premix concrete. In fact, most RMS jobs in Central West NSW use Cowra sand.
