Q:I know that quartz is a mineral and quartzite is a rock. I know the difference between the two. I want to know how to TELL the difference between the two. Thanks!

okorder nice。

Q:I am sitting here down loading photos of Quartz Druzy from Indonesia. I had a geologist tell me the fossil coral is 25 million years old but how about this micro-crystal quartz druzy. They are quite beautiful.

No quartz crystal of any size has a perfect internal structure, as a result the annealing at high temperature creates areas of high stress around the minute imperfections. These stress areas contain pent up energy which can, and often is, released by the slightest knock resulting in fractures. Due to the relative softness of the coatings all the coated gems (Aqua Aura quartz, mystic quartz/topaz etc.) suffer from another serious problem in that they are highly susceptible to scratching and abrasive wear making them absolutely unsuitable for ring stones and even in other types of settings will not have a an even reasonable life span. They are pretty but with the passage of time they will always prove to be very disappointing purchases as gemstones. Hope that helps a little.

Q:I am designing my new kitchen and I have decided that I want darker stained wood cabinets. I'd like a cream or white counter top... but I don't know anything about the upkeep or price of either. Our builder has budgeted for granite, but I haven't been able to find any pricing on quartz. I haven't looked very long, though. Thanks for any help.

Quartz. Besides limestone being more reactive to the acid than quartz is, it is more porous than quartz (which is a crystal). By being more porous, limestone will accumulate traces of the acid rain within its infrastructure where it can settle and continue to erode the stone past the point of the original damage.

Q:what is the best brand of quartz counter tops? Which manufacturer provide the most luster or shine?

May the Quartz be with you. And all the ways that it is. It's a component of glass. Pretty ubiquitous.

Q:How does quartzite differ from a quartz sandstone?

quartz doesn't need winding

Q:what type of silicate structure does each have and how would you distinguish between them on the basis of cleavage?

I assume you are in the southeastern US? The clay is probably kaolinite and the quartz is quartz. You may or may not have a decent supply of nice quartz crystals. This depends on the local environmental conditions when the quartz veins were forming. If you find your land on a USDA-NRCS soil survey, the soil series that is mapped on your land may give you additional information on local mineralogy

Q:How do you decide which type of pendulum you should use? What is the difference if it is rose quartz?

Sand is oftentimes made up of grains of quartz, so maximum sandstones would be quartz wealthy. different sedimentary rocks (eg some limestones) may additionally contain small fractions of quartz sand. Quartz is likewise a considerable ingredient of granite. Calcite is generally present day in association with limestone. It varieties colourless translucent crystals which could be pointed out via their reaction with acid.

Q:how much is a 78.85 quartz gemstone worth?

look up the temperature coefficients for each. Use the one for lead to find out how much it expands (linear coefficient is good enough) then take that percentage expansion and apply that to the quartz to find out the temperature change. .

Q:extremely fine ocean bottom sediment consisting of microscopic quartz shells is formed from?

This Site Might Help You. RE: Where Would I find a Rose Quartz Engagement ring? Okay I know most people get diamond, ruby or saphire engagement rings, But the girl I want to spend the rest of my life with loves Rose Quartz and I want to make the ring special. I'm not going to propose for awhile since I'm only 19 and don't have a steady job yet, but for future on I...
