Quartz
Chemical Weathering
Clay minerals are the product of chemical weathering of silicate minerals, such as feldspars. Clays are silicate minerals.
hardness
It causes any mineral to crack or leave little sediments of the remaining rock
mechanical weathering
Quartz is a mineral that is highly resistant to chemical weathering. Marble is a mineral that is more susceptible to chemical weathering.

The clay mineral Kaolinite - Al2Si2O5(OH)4.
Rocks that are rich in the mineral Calcite, such as limestone, are especially vulnerable to chemical weathering.
Clay minerals are the product of chemical weathering of silicate minerals, such as feldspars. Clays are silicate minerals.
Chemical weathering
This is a chemical weathering.
Quartz is a mineral that is the most resistant to chemical weathering. Its resistance is due to the structure of the grains that comprise it.
No it just dissolves
