Wadi Hagul, Suez

Basalt

Basalt is an aphanitic extrusive igneous rock formed from the rapid cooling of low-viscosity lava rich in magnesium and iron (mafic lava) exposed at or very near the surface of a rocky planet or moon. More than 90% of all volcanic rock on Earth is basalt.

Basalt is mainly used in construction, making cobblestones and in making statues. We extract raw Basalt from our mines in Wadi Hagul, Suez. Our production is about 50000 ton/month.
