$20 to 30/tonne delivered (and only when the silica meets very exacting criteria as to grain size, shape factor etc.)

Optical/electronic grade silica is worth up to $1000/tonne but that stuff is 99.9 percent or better and you're not going to get that from a gold mine. Even if you have quartz of that nature (it isn't that uncommon) good luck trying to break into the market which is very specialized.
