Cast iron sand, also known as foundry sand, is derived from the natural silica sands. This type of sand is specially treated and processed to be used in metal casting applications, particularly in the making of molds and cores. The primary components of cast iron sand include quartz, clay, and other additives that enhance its casting properties. These materials are chosen for their ability to withstand high temperatures, provide excellent mold detail, and facilitate easy removal of the final cast product.
