Quartz pink feldspar and biotite are found where?
These minerals are typically found in igneous rocks such as granite. Quartz and pink feldspar are common minerals in granite, while biotite is a dark-colored mineral commonly found in the same rock type. Granite is often used in construction and countertops due to its durability and aesthetic appeal.
What is the chemical symbol for Granite?
Granite is a type of rock composed of different minerals and does not have a chemical symbol. The minerals found in granite, such as quartz, feldspar, and mica, each have their own chemical symbols like SiO2 for quartz and KAlSi3O8 for feldspar.

How are quartz and granite different?
Quartz is silicon dioxide (SiO2). Granite is a rock containing many minerals and chemical entities; but granite contain also an important percentage of quartz.
