The adhesive is most commonly polymer resin, with some newer versions using cement mix. This category includes engineered quartz (SiO 2 ), polymer concrete and engineered marble stone. [ 1]

3. Quartz - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartz

   Quartz is a hard, crystalline mineral composed of silica ( silicon dioxide ). The atoms are linked in a continuous framework of SiO 4 silicon–oxygen tetrahedra, with each oxygen being shared between two tetrahedra, giving an overall chemical formula of SiO 2. Quartz is, therefore, classified structurally as a framework silicate mineral and ...

7. Quartz reef mining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartz_reef_mining

   Quartz reef mining is a type of gold mining in "reefs" ( veins [ 1]) of quartz . Quartz is one of the most common minerals in the Earth's crust, and most quartz veins do not carry gold, but those that have gold are avidly hunted by prospectors. In the shallow, oxidized zones of quartz reef deposits, the gold occurs in its metallic state, and is ...
