A geographical and geological regional summary of the deposits of quartz, feldspar and granitoids of industrial use in the province of Córdoba is presented in this work, aiming at generating new exploratory orientation. The classification by quality of the minerals shows that there exists quartz and feldspars of very good quality which are used in the ceramics industry and which could be replaced by the raw material produced in high tonnage granite deposits, thus keeping the high quality materials for special purposes. The possibility of finding new deposits and the need for a deeper study in some specific areas is pointed out.
