Quartz
A ubiquitous mineral with an enormous number of uses
Quartz is a chemical compound consisting of one part silicon and two parts oxygen. It is silicon dioxide (SiO2). It is the most abundant mineral found at Earth's surface, and its unique properties make it one of the most useful natural substances.

Amethyst quartz: Purple crystalline quartz is known as "amethyst." When transparent and of high quality, it is often cut as a gemstone. This specimen is about four inches (ten centimeters) across and is from Guanajuato, Mexico.

I HEAR YOU!

It should be exploited now. What are they waiting for?! Nigeria needs all the money it can get.

We know about all these and they are been kept for future Oduduwa Republic! Oyels are reserved in Ogun state also and so many mineral resources. We have plans but not yet to explode it. We have to detach the parasites first and establish our rich region for prosperity of the Oduduwans.

OP can you see the cursed and confused parasites?

Their land is barren and they'd keep on migrating to other regions for greener pastures because their soil has been cursed.

Mr Troll pig please tell us ur business with Oduduwa's mineral resource since you're into having ur Biafrat Republic?

Nigeria is for all Nigerians.

Quartz glass sand: High-purity quartz sandstone suitable for the manufacture of high-quality glass. "Glass sand" is a sandstone that is composed almost entirely of quartz grains. Pictured here is a specimen of the Oriskany Sandstone from Hancock, West Virginia. In a few locations, the Oriskany is over 99% pure quartz. Much of it has been used for container glass, but some of it has been selected for use in making lenses for the largest telescopes. Specimen is about four inches (ten centimeters across).

Uses of Quartz as an Abrasive
The high hardness of quartz, seven on the Mohs Scale, makes it harder than most other natural substances. As such it is an excellent abrasive material. Quartz sands and finely ground silica sand are used for sand blasting, scouring cleansers, grinding media, and grit for sanding and sawing.

Oduduwa republic mineral deposits are human skulls and human spare parts. That will be the highest revenue earner

Uses of Quartz as a Foundry Sand
Quartz is very resistant to both chemicals and heat. It is therefore often used as a foundry sand. With a melting temperature higher than most metals, it can be used for the molds and cores of common foundry work. Refractory bricks are often made of quartz sand because of its high heat resistance. Quartz sand is also used as a flux in the smelting of metals.

Uses in the Petroleum Industry
Quartz sand has a high resistance to being crushed. In the petroleum industry, sand slurries are forced down oil and gas wells under very high pressures in a process known as hydraulic fracturing. This high pressure fractures the reservoir rocks, and the sandy slurry injects into the fractures. The durable sand grains hold the fractures open after the pressure is released. These open fractures facilitate the flow of natural gas into the well bore.

Uses for Quartz Crystals
One of the most amazing properties of quartz is the ability of its crystals to vibrate at a precise frequencies. These frequencies are so precise that quartz crystals can be used to make extremely accurate time-keeping instruments and equipment that can transmit radio and television signals with precise and stable frequencies.

Today, billions of quartz crystals are used to make oscillators for watches, clocks, radios, televisions, electronic games, computers, cell phones, electronic meters, and GPS equipment.
