Non-essential minerals - these minerals are common, sometimes major components, but are not always present: Calomel. [Hg2]2+Cl2. Cinnabar. HgS. Mercury.
Cinnabar is the most common mercury mineral and is the chief ore of that metal. It is mined extensively for the production of mercury. Aesthetic crystals of Cinnabar, especially those from China, are very popular among mineral collectors. Cinnabar has been historically used as a vermilion pigment. NOTEWORTHY LOCALITIES

Ores in these deposits are complex and can include both mercury and antimony; ores in Konchoch, however, contain mostly antimony. The U.S.-owned Anzob Ore Mining and Processing Enterprise is situated at the Jijikurt deposit of Sughd region. Anzob owns a license for the extraction of anitomony valid from March 2015 through March 2027.
The Nuevo Entredicho deposit contains the richest concentration of mercury in the Almadén district, locally grading as much as 45% Hg. This ore deposit is hosted within an alkaline, conically shaped diatreme, about 150 m in diameter, which was subsequently filled with phreatomagmatic breccias.

The mercury ores in Idria were named empirically after their appearance and mercury content. These names were preserved through the centuries of mining. A detailed classification of Idria ores was given by SCOPOLI (1761) and HACQUET (1781), who described dozens of varieties, mainly related to sedimentary ore types.

It is usually found as small isolated drops associated with cinnabar, but it can also be found as large liquid masses in rock cavities. Mercury is often found, along with cinnabar and other Hg minerals, as a precipitate from hot springs and in volcanic regions. Because of its rarity, it is not often used as an ore of mercury.

Mercury has been mined for more than 2,000 years and most of the mercury used historically by man has been produced through the mining of ore. Although mercury and elements found in nature, mercury can be highly enriched in certain rocks called ore deposits. The most common mineral containing mercury in ore deposits is cinnabar, or
The Wanshan mercury mine, located in northeastern Guizhou Province, Southwest China, is currently abandoned. However, long-term mining activities destroyed the original ecological conditions of this area and seriously affected local residents ( Cheng et al., 2018; Wu et al., 2020b ).
