About Quartz

Paraphrased from mindat.org (https://www.mindat.org/min-3337.html):

Quartz is one of the most common minerals on Earth. It occurs in two basic forms: macrocrystalline and cryptocrystalline quartz. Macrocrystalline includes quartz such as clear quartz, smoky quartz, and rose quartz. Cryptocrystalline quartz includes flint, chert, and agate.

Clear and white quartz, often simply referred to as "quartz," are one of the most abundant minerals on Earth. Its chemical composition is silicon dioxide (SiO2), giving it a simple yet robust structure. This simplicity allows for a wide range of crystal formations and colors, though the clear and white varieties are the most common.

Quartz can be found in various geological settings, including igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks. It's mined in numerous countries worldwide, with significant deposits in Brazil, Madagascar, the United States, and many other regions. The specific mining locations often depend on the quality and quantity of the quartz crystals, as well as the associated minerals and gemstones.

Clear and white quartz is prized for its clarity, hardness, and versatility. It's also used in various applications, from jewelry and ornamental objects to industrial purposes like electronics and glassmaking.
