Is agate a silicate or a non silicate?
Agate is a variety of silicon dioxide (SiO2); it is not a silicate.
What must contain a silicate mineral?
Silicate is literally Silicon and Oxygen. To be a silicate, therefore, a mineral must contain SiO2. The classic Silicate is Quartz, which is pure SiO2.
Is lithium a silicate or non silicate mineral?
Lithium is a non-silicate mineral. It is typically found in minerals such as spodumene, lepidolite, and petalite, which belong to the silicate mineral group.
Is cinnabar silicate or non silicate?
Cinnabar is a non-silicate. It is mercury(II) sulfide HgS.

How come si04 is not a non silicate mineral?
SiO4 is not a mineral. Do you perhaps mean SiO2, the common silicate called quartz?
Is jasper a silicate mineral or a non-silicate mineral?
Jasper is a silicate mineral. It belongs to the quartz group of minerals and is composed primarily of silicon dioxide, which is a common component of silicate minerals.
Is quartz a sulfate?
No Quartz is a silicate and an oxide.
What is an example of a silacat and non silacate?
An example of a silicate is quartz, which is a mineral composed of silicon dioxide. An example of a non-silicate is halite, also known as rock salt, which is composed of sodium chloride.
Is amethyst a silicate or non silicate?
Silicate. It is silica, SiO2 with contaminants such as Fe3+ that give it color. technically it is a tectosilicate.
Are you more likely to find the silicates feldspar and quartz of the non-silicates copper and iron in the Earth's crust?
Feldspar and quartz are silicate minerals and are more common in the Earth's crust compared to non-silicate minerals like copper and iron. Silicate minerals make up the majority of the Earth's crust, while non-silicate minerals such as copper and iron are found in smaller quantities.
Is quartz a ferromagnesian silicate?
No, quartz is not a ferromagnesian silicate. Ferromagnesian silicates are silicate minerals containing iron and/or magnesium along with silicon and oxygen. Quartz is a silicate mineral composed of silicon and oxygen.
A very common silicate is?

Is fluorite a silicate or non silicate?
Flourite is a non-silicate
What are the two most common silicate minerals in earths crust?
Quartz and feldspars are the most common silicate minerals of the crust.
What mineral group does quartz?
Quartz is a silicate mineral. In fact, quartz is pure SiO2 (Silicon Dioxide). Most of the Earth's crust is made of silicate rock.
