A hammer. You would break it off and flatten out the gold which is malleable from the fragile quartz.

yes it will me magnetic it will separate anything metal or iron.
This would be quartz.
Quartz is a mineral not a rock. Fossils can be found associated with quartz in sedimentary rock not inside the quartz.
Quartz
Quartz, with a hardness of 7, will scratch calcite, with a hardness of 3.
Quartz because its harder than calcite and the quartz in thicker.
The best tool - would be a pair of small tweezers. That would probably help you remove the piece stuck in the socket.
When raisins are stuck together, they can be pried apart manually (which is to say, you can do it with your fingers). If you would like to make them less sticky, you can coat them with flour.
A non-metallic mineral such as quartz or calcite.
The best anwser would be A, that they contain quartz.
A small drop of hydrochloric acid or vinegar would fizz on calcite, not on quartz.Also, quartz has a Mohs hardness of 7 whereas calcite has a hardness of 3. Quartz doesn't have cleavage but calcite has rhombohedral cleavage (skewed square). If the piece of mineral breaks along perfect lines, then it's most likely calcite not quartz. One more thing, if you put the clear calcite on print, like that in a book, you will see a double image through the crystal, an example of double refraction.
