How Can I Identify Unknown Minerals? By Observing their Properties Color, Luster, Crystal Shape By Performing Simple Tests Cleavage-Fracture, Hardness, Streak, Acid Reaction By Looking for Unique Properties Double Refraction, Fluorescence, Magnetism

Color- not reliable Few minerals have a unique color ex: sulfur Many minerals have the same color Some minerals come in a variety of colors ex: quartz

LUSTER- the way a mineral reflects light Non-metallic-pearly Non-metallic- vitreous Metallic Non-metallic-earthy or dull

CLEAVAGE- when a mineral breaks into smooth planes

FRACTURE- the way a mineral breaks, no planes

Acid Test If you drop acidic solution on minerals that contain calcium carbonate, Carbon Dioxide bubbles will be given off!

DOUBLE REFRACTION

Hardness Test- scratch mineral

STREAK- color of powdered mineral

FLUORESCENCE

Magnetism-contains Iron

Chatoyancy & Asterism

Over 3,000 different minerals 20 Common minerals 10 Rock Forming minerals Quartz, Feldspar (2), Halite, Mica(2), Calcite, Dolomite, Gypsum, Ferromagnesium Minerals
