Quarry dust, also known as crushed sand, is often used as an alternative to natural sand in various construction applications, making it a type of artificial sand.
Quarry dust is produced as a byproduct during the crushing process of rocks in quarries. It consists of fine particles that are similar in size and shape to natural sand particles.
FTM Machinery artificial sand presents the particle size distribution of quarry dust can be controlled during the crushing process, allowing for the production of a consistent particle size range. This makes it suitable for concrete production.

Is gravel a fine aggregate?
Gravel can be composed of varying sizes of stone, sand, and fine dust, with the coarse stone measuring up to about 2 inches. Large stone is often referred to as ballast or sometimes, pit run. Even larger stone (6" to 24") is called rip-rap. Rip-rap is used to armor the soil to prevent erosion from water runoff. If you are using boulders or rip-rap, then gravel would probably be considered a fine aggregate. But if you are using gravel under a new sidewalk, say, then gravel would be somewhat coarse compared to the sand and fine dust in it.
