Soda Ash
The average American citizen is probably unaware that production of sodium carbonate, also known as soda ash, is used to measure the strength of the nation’s economy. Soda ash has applications in both the automobile and construction industries, meaning production trends of soda ash can, qualitatively at least, indicate near-term economic activity.
Boric Acid

Iron Pyrite
Iron Pyrite, commonly known as fool’s gold due to its metallic luster and pale brass-yellow hue, is a naturally occurring mineral composed of iron disulfide (FeS₂). Beyond its aesthetic resemblance to gold, Iron Pyrite plays a significant role in industrial and refractory applications
Sulfur
Sulfur (S) is an element that can never be overlooked. In the periodic table, sulfur is found in group 16. It is non-metal and is obtained as a byproduct after the production of natural gas. In colour, it is bright yellow, and it has an extremely bad odour (like rotten eggs). Outside the apparent physical characters of sulfur, humans have been consuming this element since a thousand years. Why? Because you might just find it sitting on the ground.
Sulfuric Acids in drums
Sulfuric acid (alternative spelling sulphuric acid), also known as vitriol, is a mineral acid composed of the elements sulfur, oxygen and hydrogen, with molecular formula H2SO4. It is a colorless, odorless, and viscous liquid that is soluble in water and is synthesized in reactions that are highly exothermic.
