Resource

The starting point is the resource.

TAM's silica deposits are neither Tertiary alluvial sands nor quartz rock.
 
TAM's silica flour formations are unique to Tasmania.

Pre-Cambrian dolomite formations were replaced in-situ in the Devonian period by silica-rich fluids, leached by tannic acid-rich groundwater and weathered over the following millennia to form high purity silica deposits.

The resource enables a product with high specific surface area and unique chemical qualities resulting in superior meltability and high purity.
