Application

Quartz is a crystalline mineral made up of silicon and oxygen atoms that is hard and brittle (silica dioxide). it is essentially one of the most well—known and second- most abundant minerals on the planet, having numerous applications. lt forms in all temperatures and is a key component of rocks (igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks). Quartz is clear or white in its purest form, but impurities within the atomic lattice can change the hue to purple, pink, brown, black, grey, green, orange, yellow, blue, or red, or multi—color in some situations. Therefore, due to its abundance, crystalline nature, high thermal, and chemical properties, quartz is employed in many large scale applications.
