Difference between Quartz and Staurolite

Quartz vs. Staurolite

Quartz is a mineral composed of silicon and oxygen atoms in a continuous framework of SiO4 silicon–oxygen tetrahedra, with each oxygen being shared between two tetrahedra, giving an overall chemical formula of SiO2. Staurolite is a red brown to black, mostly opaque, nesosilicate mineral with a white streak.

Similarities between Quartz and Staurolite

Quartz and Staurolite have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): Ångström, Crystal twinning, Gneiss, Manganese, Metamorphic rock, Mineral, Mohs scale of mineral hardness, Monoclinic crystal system, Schist, Silicate minerals.

Ångström

The ångström or angstrom is a unit of length equal to (one ten-billionth of a metre) or 0.1 nanometre.

Crystal twinning

Crystal twinning occurs when two separate crystals share some of the same crystal lattice points in a symmetrical manner.

Gneiss

Gneiss is a common distributed type of rock formed by high-grade regional metamorphic processes from pre-existing formations that were originally either igneous or sedimentary rocks.

Manganese

Manganese is a chemical element with symbol Mn and atomic number 25.

Metamorphic rock

Metamorphic rocks arise from the transformation of existing rock types, in a process called metamorphism, which means "change in form".

Mineral

A mineral is a naturally occurring chemical compound, usually of crystalline form and not produced by life processes.

Mohs scale of mineral hardness

The Mohs scale of mineral hardness is a qualitative ordinal scale characterizing scratch resistance of various minerals through the ability of harder material to scratch softer material.

Monoclinic crystal system

In crystallography, the monoclinic crystal system is one of the 7 crystal systems.

Schist

Schist (pronounced) is a medium-grade metamorphic rock with medium to large, flat, sheet-like grains in a preferred orientation (nearby grains are roughly parallel).
