Is mica an electrical insulator?

Mica has such poor electrical conductivity that it has often been used as an insulator. The resistivity of mica ranges from 1x10^12 to 2x10^14 Ω/cm depending on the type of mica. For reference, copper, a good conductor, has a resistivity of only 1.68×10^−8 Ω/m or 1.68x10^-10 Ω/cm. no, it is an insulator.
