Read the scenario wordings about the quartz rock ...
Quartz's piezoelectric (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piezoelectricity) properties were discovered by Jacques (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacques_Curie) and Pierre Curie (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pierre_Curie) in 1880.[21] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartz#cite_note-21)[22] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartz#cite_note-22) The quartz oscillator (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_oscillator) or resonator was first developed by Walter Guyton Cady (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walter_Guyton_Cady) in 1921.[23] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartz#cite_note-23)[24] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartz#cite_note-24) George Washington Pierce (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G._W._Pierce) designed and patented quartz crystal oscillators (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pierce_oscillator) in 1923.[25] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartz#cite_note-25)[26] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartz#cite_note-26)[27] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartz#cite_note-27) Warren Marrison created the first quartz oscillator clock based on the work of Cady and Pierce in 1927.[28]
