Gneiss is generally heavy due to its high density and composition of minerals such as quartz, feldspar, and mica. It is a type of metamorphic rock that is often denser than most sedimentary rocks.
Mica is a type of mineral that occurs as flakes, books, or sheets. It is mined. They are mined using techniques that extract mica from the metamorphic rock called schist, from placer deposits, and from pegmatites.

The value of mica schist can vary depending on factors such as quality, size, and location. In general, it is not typically considered a highly valuable rock compared to other gemstones or minerals. However, mica schist is commonly used in construction and landscaping for its durability and attractive appearance.
