The sequence of operations involved in the fabrication of samples of quartz glass from highly enriched natural raw material and synthetic silicon dioxide is described and implemented. Attention is focused on purifying the raw material and maintaining a clean regime during the glass fabrication process. It is shown that synthetic raw material is best for obtaining quartz glass with low internal friction.
