feldspar
The most common mineral group contains silicate minerals.
feldspar : this family includes the most common and most abundant of all minerals; smooth cleavage surfaces aid in identification
Feldspar
Oxygen and silicon are the two most abundant elements found in the most common minerals. The most common minerals found on Earth are silicates.
Silicon and oxygen combine to form the most abundant mineral group, the silicates.
We know silicate minerals are the most abundant in detrital sedimentary rocks.Quartzv is a tectosilicate mineral.So quartz is the most abundant and other silicate minerals are also very common in these rocks.
About 200 minerals make up the bulk of most rocks. The feldspar mineral family is the most abundant. Quartz, calcite, and clay minerals are also common. Some minerals are more common in igneous rock (formed under extreme heat and pressure), such as olivine, feldspars, pyroxenes, and micas.
Silicates are the most common mineral group.
