The problem with running a #MinCup26 competition at your library is sometimes you have to enter a vote contrary to what you want. I just put in my patrons' choice of #Stichtite, effectively canceling out my own vote for #Quartz. Bah humbug. (But really, I am delighted that patrons are engaging!)

It's fascinating learning about unusual minerals like #stichtite but good 'ol #quartz is so fundamental to geology that it has my vote in #MinCup26 go #TeamQuartz!

#MinCup26 Round 2 Match 4 Both colourful yet opposite in almost every other way, it’s abundant and hard #Quartz against rare and very soft #Stichtite. VOTE: www.mineralcup.org/2026/vote-re... RESULTS: www.mineralcup.org/2026/vote-re...

Bit late to today's #MinCup26 party - but no contest for my vote. #Stichtite has layers (like an onion, like an ogre) and is full of interesting structural points. #Quartz is just... well Quartz, nothing doing here.
Image representing the crystal structure of quartz- here red spheres represent oxygen atoms, and blue spheres/polygons represent silicon atoms. The structure has been expanded over b axis to show off quite how really basic it is. Yes it is piezoelectric, but don't let that sway you. The representation is drawn in VESTA from entry #789 in the American mineralogist database

#MinCup26 #Quartz is super common and is an irritating end to a day at the beach. Vote #Stichtite, it's rare and soft - it would never make your Speedo crunch like Doritos.

Today it's #Talc against #Stichtite at #MinCup26 😻 This is easy for us Talc is representating the fluffy end of the Moths scale that measures the hardness of a #mineral 🙀😹 Being fluffy is one of the supaw powers of #cats So #DoesItCat ? YES🐾 #PawForScale #geologywithcats
Micas paw as scale for a tiny piece of Talc

#MinCup26 Round 1 Match 8: It’s a pair of soft and lovely minerals as Stichtite and Talc compete for your votes. VOTE: www.mineralcup.org/2026/vote-re... RESULTS: www.mineralcup.org/2026/vote-re...
