Our Company Message
Lighthouse quartz has exceptional natural quality requiring minimal and low-cost processing to yield commercial grades for high-purity end uses .... and has access to excellent infrastructure to reach markets in Asia and beyond. In short, the Lighthouse deposit represents a remarkable combination of natural high quality, ease of extraction, and low-cost processing" Industry expert Peter Harbin.
The high purity of the unprocessed silica quartz positions Solar Silicon Resource Group’s as a global leader to meet the growing demand: in lump quartz used in the manufacture of metallurgical-grade silicon in high purity solar grade (5N) polysilicon, in semiconductor grade polysilicon, and in fused quartz used in the manufacture of crucibles, halogen lamps, LCD glass substrates and high purity silica fillers.
Independent reports confirm that demand for high purity silicon will double by 2015 largely driven by demand for solar grade silicon. In addition, demand for high purity quartz and ultra-high purity quartz is expected to grow at 15% per year or more over the next 5 years.
