Mystery Minerals Use the key to figure out the mystery minerals

Mineral #1 Color: gray Luster: metallic; opaque Streak: black Hardness: can scratch it with a fingernail Not magnetic Is it…..magnetite, biotite, graphite, or quartz?

Show me the answer Graphite

Mineral #2 Color: greenish Luster: Nonmetallic Streak: colorless No reaction to acid Is it….calcite, olivine, hornblende or feldspar?

Show me the answer Olivine

Mineral #3 Color: grayish white Luster: non-metallic, translucent/opaque Streak: white Hardness: can easily scratch with a fingernail Is it….feldspar, sulfur, talc, or olivine?

Show Me the Answer Talc

Mineral #4 Color: yellowish white Luster: non-metallic, translucent Streak: white Hardness: can’t scratch with a fingernail, can scratch with a #7 mineral Reacts with acid Is it….halite, calcite, feldspar, or quartz?

Show me the answer Calcite

Mineral #5 Color: peachy Luster: nonmetallic, translucent Streak: white Hardness: 6 No reaction to acid Is it….feldspar, quartz, calcite, or diamond?

Show me the answer »Feldspar
