Delicate crystals of Hematite, Fe
2O
3, and Cristobalite, SiO
2. I had to look up the latter: "cristobalite is a high-temperature
polymorph of quartz, meaning that it is composed of the same chemistry, SiO2, but has a different structure..." Much more at the link, where it gets way more complicated than I care to blog.
