Which of the following minerals identifies with the information given above?
The correct option is D Mica
Explanation:
Micas are very light and soft, and their sheets and flakes are flexible. Mica is heat-resistant and does not conduct electricity. These sheets can be so thin that a thousand can be layered into a few centimetres high. Due to its excellent dielectric strength, low power loss factor, insulating properties and resistance to high voltage, mica is one of the most indispensable minerals used in electric and electronic industries. The common minerals of mica include purple lepidolite, black biotite, brown phlogopite and clear muscovite. Important mica bearing pegmatite occurs in Andhra Pradesh, Jharkhand, Maharashtra, Bihar and Rajasthan.
