 Silica sand, or industrial sand/white sand, is primarily composed of quartz. This is a chemically inert mineral with a solid hardness which makes it highly desired for the specific use of making concrete. Regular sand, like desert sand, has many more impurities like potassium, iron, carbonate and other stuff that makes it more reactive and gives it a darker color. A more reactive sand is bad for a concrete mix and will make the structure more prone to cracks and failure over time, whereas a chemically inert mineral like quartz is just what the doctor ordered. Silica sand has many uses like water filtration systems, glass and ceramic work, sandblasting and industrial uses, like making high grade concrete.
