its used in mining to grind down other material. either that or its a certain mineral in 4 different stages

 

[LT72884]

like coper. or you throw all 4 together to create a metal

 

[Buck]

Still nope nope nopers.

Okay Fuzzy Cat, I am going to go in a totally different direction and guess that it is used in cooking. Similar to spices or rubs.

 

[Buck]

Fuzzy cat says not used in cooking.

Are they different grades of wall rendering material?

 

[Buck]

I don't know what wall rendering material is, but no.

 

[miniman]

rendering is a stone & cement mix you stick to external walls - supposedly to make them look nicer!

 

[Buck]

OK thanks. We call that stucco or parging.

Okay--another NNN(nope, nope, nopers!) guess coming up----GUNPOWDER?

 

[Mr._Steak]

sandblast abrasives?

 

[Uncle Bob]

Used in the medical field? or Agricultural field? or construction field?

 

[healthyfoodie]

dirt / sand from the local playground and sandbox??

does it have to do with a well? casing material around the well, and sand from the aquifer?

is it related to a specific type of garden?

 

[Buck]

Many creative guesses here. None are near the mark.

Hint: Among other things, it is something near and dear to the needs of all indoor kitty cats.

 

[miniman]

Is it cat litter material?

 

[expatgirl]

Well, aren't you being a sweet kitty on giving huge hints, Buck! A big scratch on your tawny head and some catnip thrown in. My cats can't wait for me to change their litter so they can all take turns luxurinating in it. I'm assuming, of course, that miniman is right.

 

[Uncle Bob]

ground corn cobs.....diatomaceous earth Yes?

 

[LT72884]

its clay.....

it`s gotta be the sand/grit that gets glued to paper at the bottom of a Bird Cage

 

[LT72884]

either that or gravel for birds so they can eat there seed.
