   Engineered stone. Engineered stone is a composite material made of crushed stone bound together by an adhesive to create a solid surface. 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]

4. Quartzite - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartzite

   Quartzite. Quartzite is a hard, non- foliated metamorphic rock which was originally pure quartz sandstone. [1][2] Sandstone is converted into quartzite through heating and pressure usually related to tectonic compression within orogenic belts. Pure quartzite is usually white to grey, though quartzites often occur in various shades of pink and ...

   Baraboo Quartzite is a Precambrian geological formation [ 1 ] of quartzite, found in the region of Baraboo, Wisconsin. While pure quartzite is usually white or gray, Baraboo Quartzite is typically dark purple to maroon in color, due to the presence of iron (hematite) and other impurities. [ 2 ] Baraboo Quartzite may display strata created by ...

6. Acicular (crystal habit) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acicular_(crystal_habit)

   Acicular, in mineralogy, refers to a crystal habit composed of slender, needle-like crystals. Crystals with this habit tend to be fragile. Complete, undamaged acicular specimens are uncommon. Needle-shaped acicular millerite crystals on white quartz. The term "acicular" derives from the Late Latin "acicula" meaning "little needle". [1]

8. Quartz - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartz

   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 ...
