Other way around. Beach sand is new and this rough. A surprising amount of it is parrotfish poo, chewed up coral. River sand, and desert sand, is weathered and smooth.

I’ve seen a machine for pulverizing glass bottles into basically sand. Smooth desert sand > glass packaging, used for food, glass packaging > concrete aggregate?

Used coffee grounds were charred at 350 degrees Celsius until they became a charcoal-like biochar. That material replaced 15 percent of the sand by volume in a concrete mix, and the resulting concrete had 29.3 percent greater compressive strength than the control mix.
