    Fluorite

    Talc

    Fluorite is used as a
    flux for smelting, and
    in the production of
    certain glasses and
    enamels.
    Talc is used in
    many industries,
    including paper
    making, plastic,
    paint and coatings,
    rubber, food,
    electric cable,
    pharmaceuticals,
    cosmetics, and
    ceramics.
    Diamond membranes
    are durable, resistant
    to heat, and
    transparent, making
    them highly useful.
    Because
    diamonds are so hard
    and durable, they are
    ideal for grinding,
    cutting, drilling, and
    polishing.
    Gold's qualities make
    it one of the most
    coveted metals in the
    world.
