Tincal, found in Eskişehir – Kırka deposits in Turkey where %73 of the world’s boron reserves are,  is mined by the experts of world boron leader Eti Maden and goes through the process of enrichment in hi-tech concentrator facilities to become effective products.

Acquired through the research – development operations  carried out by Eti Maden,  with the chemical name of borax pentahydrate, Etibor-48 directly contributes to the glass industry by making the glass more enduring against physical impacts. Also actively used in agriculture sector as a boron source in composite fertilizers as well as solo, tincal-rich Etibor-48 make all the difference in the agriculture industry of Turkey and the world by increasing the crop in the cultivated areas.

Tincal (Na₂B₄O₇.10H2O), although colorless and transparent substantially, can be found in pink, yellowish and grey colors due to  various impurities in its compound. Its hardness is 2-2,5 Mohs, its specific weight is 1,7 gr/cm. Tincal disintegrates quickly and can transform into tincalconite by losing its water. It can be found together with tincalconite and ulexite in clay. It is found in Eskişehir – Kırka deposit in Turkey.
