Silicon and oxygen combine to form the most abundant mineral group, the silicates.
The SILICATE group of minerals.
the answer is the silicate minerals. :3
Quartz with the formula: SiO2

Quartz is a mineral composed of silicon and oxygen, SiO2.
Silicate minerals are those composed of silicon and oxygen atoms. Some of these minerals are quartz, feldspar, mica and olivine.

Examples: hematite (Fe2O3), ilmenite (FeTiO3), pitchblende (UO2). The most common such oxide mineral is silicon dioxide in sand.

No. Silica, or silicon dioxide, is acquired from common sand. In nature it occurs as the mineral quartz.
