Quartz Raw

Type: Raw Mineral (Ship Mining) Value Tier: Low Refined Product: Quartz One of the most abundant minerals in the known universe, quartz (silicon dioxide) is found on virtually every rocky body in the Stanton system. In the 30th century, high-purity quartz is essential for manufacturing optical fibers, precision lenses, semiconductor substrates, and quantum computing components. While individual deposits have low trade value, the sheer demand for quartz in manufacturing ensures consistent markets.
