Abstract
During the last few years considerable amount of work has
been done on t.he glass sands and several localities have been
described where satisfactory quality of silica occurs in some
form or other suitable for the glass industry. But inspite
of all this no new locality has been developed during the last
five years. Still gbss sand is being sent to glass factories all
over India, ' from t!1e old l;)cality near Allahabad. Really
speaking in India the number of localities where suitable kinds
of glass sand can be produced is so large that it should be
possible for most of the factories to get their sand requirements
within a radius of 200 miles instead of getting it from
thousands of miles away.
