What must be true for a mineral or rock to be classified as an ore? A.Must be pretty to look at. B.It must contain a useful substance that can be mined for profit. C.Must contain more than one color. D.The mineral or rock must be displayed in a piece of jewelry. 4. Explain why streak is often more useful for mineral identification than color.

5. 1.What are three of the requirements of a mineral? A.Organic, chemical formula, fossils B.Man-made, inorganic, luster C.Solid, inorganic, found in nature D.Fracture, color, streak 2. What are three types of luster? A.Metallic, rock-like, dull B.Metallic, glassy, dull C.Metallic, shiny, dull D.Metallic, tasty, dull 3. What must be true for a mineral or rock to be classified as an ore? A.Must be pretty to look at. B.It must contain a useful substance that can be mined for profit. C.Must contain more than one color. D.The mineral or rock must be displayed in a piece of jewelry. 4. Explain why streak is often more useful for mineral identification than color. Several different samples of one mineral may have different colors, but they usually will have the same streak.
