Here's some pictures of my vacation get away from the beach to the mountains. The rental house was near the town of Spruce Pine, NC.
It's a mining town, biggest producer of feldspar in the US and only of pure quartz in the world every computer chip is made with it.
I noticed Vulcan Materials in Kitty Hawk Village was up there. That flat decorative stone they have is feldspar and were pit mining.
Also is crushed up and used in a lot of things like glass making, ceramics, drywall. The quartz there could be any color and that kind.
Just stuff to know if you do not want a look of horror. This is the view from the rental house with a low layer of fog in the mountains.
