Quan is an artist who makes jewelry using a technique called hammering. Hammering is when a person uses a mallet or special hammer and repeatedly hits the material to make patterns or to shape the material. In which area of the periodic table should Quan look to find materials that would be suitable for making this jewelry?

answer is: naturally occurring solid, inorganic compound or element is mineral.

minerals usually have crystalline form, that means than crystal constituents (atoms, molecules or ions) are arranged in a highly ordered microscopic structure, forming a crystal lattice that extends in all directions.

for example magnetite is a mineral of iron oxide (fe₂o₃).

calcite is a carbonate mineral and the most stable polymorph of calcium carbonate (caco₃).

dolomite is an   carbonate mineral composed of calcium magnesium carbonate (camg(co₃)₂).
