Yay to #TeamQuartz. So glad a properly hard mineral won with all the softies this year. No: No more quartz goodness in future #minCups to come. Boo: Cheating is just lame. Idea: If there are enough winners, what about a winner short mincup just with these?

TEAM QUARTZ WINS BABY

I hope the mineral cup goes on for enough years that we can have a winner's only bracket and truly determine what is the Best Mineral...

#MinCup26 #TeamQuartz
Congratulations, Quartz!

After a decade of #MinCup, this key rock-forming mineral of optical tricks is the #MinCup26 Champion!

Due to intense manipulation attempts in the final hours, the exact winning margin is still being audited. Please join us tomorrow for celebration!

The startling white #Quartzite of #Holyhead Mountain. Composed of almost pure #Quartz, this rock was quarried to create the 1.7 mile #Breakwater. For more than 150 years, resilient #Quartz has provided a safe harbour for shipping, enabling travel and trade. #MinCup26 #TeamQuartz

I have to be #TeamQuartz on this one. Quartz is used as a pressure standard in high pressure crystallography experiments. It's a reliable friend in a stressful situation! #minCup26
#MinCup26 FINALS!!!
We have a pair of geometric beauties as deep red #Cuprite is against versatile #Quartz.

As marine geophysicist I must say don’t forget the seafloor! The 12% number is just land surface; it’s ~20% of the entire crust.
