1. Quartz Crystals - Quartz

   Quartz is a mineral composed of silicon and oxygen, with a chemical composition of SiO2. It is the most abundant mineral in Earth's crust and is resistant to both chemical and physical weathering. When rocks weather away, the residual material usually contains quartz. This is why the sand at most of the world's beaches is quartz. The quartz crysals were found by Don Balser and donated to the Jefferson County Museum.
