◊ The
history of gypsum: The history of making
use of gypsum is belonging to Egypt 5000
years ago in order to bond plastering of
walls in tombs. In Iran there also is a
close relation between gypsum industries and
building construction. From old days it was
one of the traditional construction
materials. Gypsum used to be a part of
ancient buildings and as an eye catching
arcographs that represents Iranian
innovation and the art of Iranian artistic.
◊
Location of mine: The
location of mine is in 60th km west of
BANDAR-e-ABBAS about 10 km away from
BANDAR-e-KHAMIR. The distance between
aggregation plant and main road is 1.2 km.

◊
Deposit: Fix deposit in various mineral
block forms which is mentioned in
certificate, issued by mine and industry
ministry, is 54 million tones and probable
deposit is 82 million tones.
◊
Chemical combination: Analyzing of the sample gypsum of this mine, is as following tables. | Test Methods : ASTMC-471 | | pH of 10% Aqueous solution | - | 7.76 | | Parameters | Test Method | Results in % | | Free Moisture @ 45o C | Gravimetry | 0.01 | | Combined Water @ 250o C | Gravimetry | 19.75 | | Insoluble Residue | Gravimetry | 0.89 | | Silica as SiO2 | Gravimetry | 0.32 | | Alumina as Al2O3 | Gravimetry | 0.27 | | Iron as Fe2O3 | Gravimetry | 0.05 | | Calcium Oxide as CaI | Titrimetry | 32.41 | | Magnesium Oxide as MgO | Titrimetry | 0.2 | | Sulphur Tri Oxide as SO3 | Gravimetry | 45.73 | | Alkalies (Na2O+ K2O) | Flame Photometry | 0.04 | | Chlorides as NaCl | Titrimetry | 0.017 | | Calculated Results | | Gypsum Purity as CaSO4.2H2O | - | 94.37 | | Anhydrite ( CaSO4) | - | 3.14 | | Insoluble Residue + Silica ( IR + SiO2) | - | 0.89 | | R2O3 Group ( Al2O3 + Fe2O3) | - | 0.32 | | Calcium Carbonate as CaCO3 | - | 0.68 | | Magnesium Carbonate as MgCO3 | - | 0.42 | | Chlorides as NaCl | - | 0.017 | | SUM | 99.84 |

Production method: After explosion in
mine, the modern & ultra heavy mobile
crusher reaches to stones and starts working
with capacity of 1200 tones per hour, then
stones are put into feed hopper of crusher
by excavator while the size of stones is up
to 800mm after separating the garbage (about
20%_40%) and primary crushing up to 250mm
are leaded towards mobile belt conveyors
then they're transferred toward stockpile of
35,000 tones capacity. In this stage stones
are transferred toward the secondary crusher
then to screen by belt conveyor of concrete
tunnel which is at the button of stockpile.
Consequently the final products up to 70mm
size (regarding customers order) are stored
in various stores. Again they are
transferred to five automatic loading silos
by belt conveyor which placed at the button
of stockpile. The whole production circle
(extracting till loading to trucks) is
completely automatic.

◊
Production rate: considering the cutting
–age production machines, taking 286 days a
year and 3500 tones daily into the account,
we will achieve one million tones a year.
◊
Production type:
generally up to 0 to 10, 10 to 50 and 50 to 250 mm sizes are prepared for sale and is flexible according customers’ order.

◊
Gypsum function: the
main functions are as following:
▪
industries
▪ building
▪ cement
▪ porcelain and ceramic glazing
▪ agriculture
▪ casting
▪ medicine
▪ paper
▪ petrol
chemical
▪ leader

◊
Utilizing time: regarding to the
progress which has made in establishing
aggregation plant and the time that has been
budgeted. This product is ready for sale in
the beginning of 2008.
