Celestine (also known as celestite) is the primary natural source of strontium, a mineral composed mainly of strontium sulfate (SrSO₄). At Rezvan Mines we supply both run-of-mine Celestine ore and processed Celestine Concentrate, upgraded through crushing, washing and gravity separation to increase SrSO₄ content and reduce gangue.
Celestine Concentrate is the feedstock behind strontium carbonate production, permanent ferrite magnets, specialty glass and ceramics, red-flame pyrotechnics, and a range of strontium chemicals. Because downstream processes such as black-ash conversion are sensitive to barium, calcium and silica levels, grade consistency matters more than a single headline number — and that consistency is what we deliver shipment after shipment.
