Uyabhema asebenza ngebhethri wuhlobo lwe-quartz olunombala osuka ensundu ngokukhanyayo ukuya cishe omnyama, futhi luvame ukuhlotshaniswa namaminerali oqweqwe lomhlaba. Kulokhu okuthunyelwe kwebhulogi, sizobhekisisa izakhiwo ze-geological i-quartz ebhemayo nokuthi yakheka kanjani, kanye nokusetshenziswa kwayo kanye nokubaluleka kwamasiko.
Okokuqala, ake sikhulume ngesayensi ngemuva kwe-quartz ebhemayo. Iwuhlobo lwe-quartz olunemibala nge-silicon yamahhala, etholakala oqweqweni lomhlaba. Le sililikoni ichayeka emisebeni yemvelo, okubangela ukuba ibe nemisebe futhi ikhiphe izinhlayiya ze-alpha. Lezi zinhlayiya zisebenzisana ne-crystal lattice ye-quartz, okuyenza ibe nemibala. Ukushuba kombala kuncike enanini lokuchayeka emisebeni kanye nobude besikhathi i-quartz eyayingaphansi kwayo.
I-quartz ebhemayo ingatholakala ezindaweni ezahlukahlukene emhlabeni jikelele, kufaka phakathi I-united states, iBrazil, iSwitzerland, neMadagascar. Ivame ukutholakala emadwaleni e-metamorphic, njenge-gneiss ne-schist, kanye nasemadwaleni angenalutho, njenge-granite. Ingatholakala futhi kuma-alluvial deposits, lapho ithathwe khona ngamanzi isuka endaweni yayo yasekuqaleni futhi ifakwe endaweni entsha.
Ngaphezu kwezakhiwo zayo ze-geological, i-quartz ebhemayo nayo isetshenziswe abantu ngezinjongo ezihlukahlukene. Isetshenziswe njengetshe eliyigugu amakhulu eminyaka futhi ivame ukuhlotshaniswa nesisekelo nokuvikelwa. Kukholakala ukuthi inezinto zokuphulukisa futhi isetshenziswa ekwelapheni ngekristalu. I-quartz ebhemayo iphinde isetshenziswe ekukhiqizeni i-electronics, ngenxa yokumelana kwayo nokushisa nokuhamba kukagesi.
Ngaphandle kokusetshenziswa kwayo okungokoqobo, i-quartz ebhemayo ibuye ibe nokubaluleka kwamasiko emiphakathini eminingi eyahlukene. EGibhithe lasendulo, kwakukholelwa ukuthi iyitshe elinamandla elivikelayo, futhi ngesiko lamaCeltic, lalihlotshaniswa namandla omhlaba nonkulunkulukazi benzalo. Ezikhathini zanamuhla, ivame ukusetshenziswa ekuzindleni futhi kukholakala ukuthi isiza abantu ukuthi baxhumane nemimoya yabo.
Sengiphetha, i-quartz ebhemayo iyiminerali ehehayo eye yadonsa ukunaka kwezazi ze-geologists kanye nezazi ze-non-geologists ngokufanayo amakhulu eminyaka. Umbala wayo oyingqayizivele kanye nokuguquguquka kwayo kuyenza ibe isengezo esibalulekile kunoma yiliphi iqoqo, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ngenxa yobuhle bayo or ukusetshenziswa kwayo okungokoqobo. Ukubaluleka kwayo kwamasiko kwenezela kuphela ekuheheni kwayo, kuyenze ibe itshe eliyigugu elikhethekile neliyingqayizivele ngempela.
