for small construction projects the locals sometimes dig a cart or two of beach sand to mix in with the cement. a few small specific areas of the beach have coarse grain sand that would be suitable if it were not for the salt content.
construction sand along the coast is mostly acquired by dredging the rivers but there are many environmental restrictions so it is often not available and the price can become prohibitively expensive during the increasingly frequent shortages.
while it is not legal to extract sand from beaches the environmental impact of gathering a few oxcarts on this 4,5 km beach is minimal and fortunately the vast majority of the sand is too fine grained to be of use in cement.
this shot is from arawali beach in southern maharashtra.

thanks for your friendly advice. however this account is my second account because i am having trouble with my @eolianpariah keys so i am slowly transfering over to this new one
Cool you have a second account
i cannot find my keys to my account so i opened a new one and will slowly transfer over to it.
i think what happened was i accessed my keys and wrote them down but the full key was not displayed and i did not realize it. something got messed up when i changed my password but still hivesigner works so it should be ok. the way i did access my full 50 digit key on my second account was by managing my hive keychain. there it shows the full key and i have definitely secured those. if you have any suggestions i would love to hear them
Can we maybe help you in Discord the terminal?
