The correct resource that is a conflict mineral used in smart devices is **tin**. Tin is often sourced from regions where mining can be linked to conflict and human rights abuses, particularly in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Neodymium is used in magnets for devices, but it is not classified specifically as a conflict mineral. Mercury and quartz are not considered conflict minerals in this context.
