MINERAL CLASSIFICATION How minerals are grouped. Classification Minerals are generally grouped or classified based on their chemical composition. Most.

Mineral Classification. There are over 3,000 minerals but only 30 are common. To keep them organized, they are classified into groups based on chemical.

MINERALS CH 5- Miss Kelley. MINERAL  Occur naturally  Consistent chemical composition  Solid Orderly structured= crystalline form  Inorganic chemical.

Classification of minerals Systematic classification of minerals is based on the chemical composition of the mineral.

MINERAL FAMILIES and RESOURCES Classified into 7 groups Based upon their chemical composition

I Native Elements: consist of a single element Examples: Silver (Ag) Copper (Cu) Graphite (C) Sulfur (S)

II Sulfides: - - compounds of metal and sulfur Examples: Galena(PbS) Pyrite (FeS2)

III Oxides: - compounds of metals and oxygen Examples: Hematite (Fe2O3) Corundum (Al2O3)

IV Halides made of a combination of metals and the nonmetallic elements known as halogens. Examples: Halite (NaCl) Fluorite (CaF2)

V Carbonates : - compounds of metals with carbon and oxygen. Examples: Calcite (CaCO3) Dolomite CaMg(CO3)2

VI Sulfates: compounds of metals with sulfur and oxygen Examples: Gypsum (CaSO4 H2O)

VII Silicates: Largest group - compounds of various elements with silicon (Si) and oxygen (O). - the most abundant group make up 90% of Earth’s Crust these elements form a unit called a tetrahedron Examples: Quartz, clay, talc, mica, olivine

Tetrahedron molecular formula SiO4

Structural Formula Draw out: – the arrangement of these atoms determines the crystal shape that results The silica tetrahedron is the basic building block of minerals

Resources Ores: naturally occurring solid materials from which a metal or valuable mineral can be profitably extracted. Gems: precious or semi-precious stone Mineralogy: scientific study of minerals
