Bauxite
Nova Minerals directly extracts and supplies high-grade bauxite ore from its own deposits in Türkiye. Standard grade (cement/industrial): Al₂O₃ 45-52%, SiO₂ 5-8%, Fe₂O₃ 15-22%; high grade (refractory/smelting): Al₂O₃ 53-60%+, SiO₂ 2-4% max. Sizes 0-10 mm, 10-50 mm or run-of-mine (0-300 mm), with crushing and screening on request.
Iron Pyrite
We are the only producer of lumpy iron pyrite in Turkey; our mine lies close to Gemlik Port. Pyrite is used as a sulphur source in high-quality steel such as stainless steel to improve machinability. Concentrate: S 48-50%, Fe 43-44%, SiO₂ 1-2%; lump: S 45-48%, SiO₂ 5-6%. Sizes 0-5 mm powder, 3-12, 10-50 and 50-100 mm lumps; bulk, 25 kg bags or 1 Mt big bags.
Olivine
Olivine has become an important mineral in the iron, steel and foundry industries for its chemical and physical properties. Dunite-derived, dark green, specific gravity 3.3 g/cm³, angular grains; sintering onset 1450 °C, melting point 1750-1800 °C, hardness 6.5-7 Mohs. About 85% forsterite; MgO 46-49%, SiO₂ 38-42%, Fe₂O₃ 6-9%.
