All sand is not equal, and it is slowly becoming more scarce. There are already sand mafias popping up due to certain types of sand (used in construction) becoming hard to find. There are black markets, and shady practices already happening. Maybe the sand needed for semiconductors doesn’t fall into this category yet (I don’t know, maybe it does), but it doesn’t hurt to start thinking about it.
