Quartz, with its rich historical significance and its abundance in nature, has captivated attention for centuries. Derived from the German word “Quarz” and corresponding to the Czech term “tvrdý” meaning “hard,” the name quartz was first introduced by Georgius Agricola in 1530. As for its prevalence, silicon (Si) does not exist freely in nature, but its compounds are abundant, constituting approximately 28 percent of the Earth’s crust. Quartz, along with the esteemed group of silicates, plays a vital role as a rock-forming mineral. 

Whether in its crystalline form of quartz, chalcedony, agate, flint, and jasper, or as the hydrous form of opal, silica (SiO2) pervades our surroundings. Remarkably, quartz ranks as the second most abundant mineral worldwide, surpassed only by feldspar, and can be found in various acidic igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks. The versatility of quartz is unparalleled among non-metallic minerals, owed to its widespread occurrence, distinct physical characteristics, including its hardness, chemical and heat resistance, and its affordability.
