Mining for . . . Cell Phones?
Large reserves of the metal tantalum are found in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, in Africa.
Tantalum jumped in value in the 1990s as high-tech devices that need tantalum, such as cell phones, became common.
There is international concern regarding the role tantalum mining has played in the extended conflict in the Congo.
Talk About It Is it important to think about the sources of the minerals we use?

Objective(s)
We will be able to
1. Explain what a mineral is.

Lesson 13.1 Minerals and Rocks
Over 4000 minerals have been identified, but only 1% of these are common in Earth’s crust.Amethyst
![Page 6: Environmental Science Catalyst 4/14/14](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070421/5681623b550346895dd26cfe/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
What Are Minerals?
1. Occur in nature
2. Chemically inorganic (most of the time)
3. Solids
4. Have orderly crystalline structures***
5. Have definite chemical compositions (some made by one element, some are combination of compounds)
Pyrite (Fool’s Gold)
![Page 7: Environmental Science Catalyst 4/14/14](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070421/5681623b550346895dd26cfe/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
***What are Crystals?
Crystals are solid, geometric forms of minerals produced by a repeating pattern of atoms.

How Important Is Crystalline Structure?
Well, take a look at the following:
- This is graphite - This is a diamond(pencil lead)
![Page 9: Environmental Science Catalyst 4/14/14](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070421/5681623b550346895dd26cfe/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
How Important
is Crystalline Structure?
They are both made from the element carbon!
The only difference is the pattern the atoms are in crystalline structure
![Page 10: Environmental Science Catalyst 4/14/14](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070421/5681623b550346895dd26cfe/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Properties of MineralsProperty Description
• Color A few minerals can be identified by their color. But color varies in most minerals depending on how they form.
• Streak The streak of a mineral is the color of its powder. Although mineral color may vary, streak color does not.
• Luster How light is reflected off a mineral’s surface is called luster. It may be described as glassy, earthy, silky, metallic, etc.
• Crystal A mineral can be identified by the particular arrangement of its atoms.
• HardnessMohs scale ranks mineral hardness 1–10. 1 = talc, which can be scratched by a fingernail. 10 = diamond, which can scratch all known common minerals.
• Cleavage A mineral that splits easily along a flat surface and forms a new “face” is said to have cleavage.
• Fracture Minerals that break irregularly, rather than leaving a flat surface, have fracture, not cleavage.
• Density Each mineral has a characteristic density—mass per unit volume.

Mineral Formation
Minerals can form in four ways: Crystallization from
magma or lava Precipitation Pressure and temperature Production by organisms
![Page 17: Environmental Science Catalyst 4/14/14](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070421/5681623b550346895dd26cfe/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Mineral Formation: Crystallization from Magma or Lava
Crystals form as magma (deep in Earth) or lava (on Earth’s surface) from deep inside the Earth cools.
![Page 18: Environmental Science Catalyst 4/14/14](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070421/5681623b550346895dd26cfe/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Mineral Formation: Precipitation
During precipitation, liquid in a solution evaporates and leaves solids behind as crystals to form minerals.
![Page 19: Environmental Science Catalyst 4/14/14](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070421/5681623b550346895dd26cfe/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Mineral Formation: Pressure and Temperature
High temperature and pressure, may cause atoms to be rearranged.

How Important
is Crystalline Structure?

The only difference is the pattern the atoms are in crystalline structure
POLYMORPHS = same chemical make up, different arrangement of atoms

Mineral Formation: Produced by Organisms
Outer hard structures of some organisms can become part of a mineral when they die in rock and harden.

Mineral Formation
Salt basins of the Sierra Nevada The Miwok people filled these basins with water from a salt spring and let it evaporate, to form salt for trading.
Coral Mineral formed by living things

We will be able to
1. Identify types of rocks and the stages of the rock cycle.
![Page 28: Environmental Science Catalyst 4/14/14](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070421/5681623b550346895dd26cfe/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Rocks Naturally occurring
solids made up of minerals and mineral-like materials
![Page 29: Environmental Science Catalyst 4/14/14](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070421/5681623b550346895dd26cfe/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Types of Rocks
Igneous: Form when magma cools and solidifies; can be intrusive or extrusive
Sedimentary: Form when sediments cement together or when water evaporates and leaves behind minerals; can be clastic, chemical, or biochemical
Metamorphic: Form when heat or pressure changes the crystalline structure of existing rock

Igneous
Formed when magma cools and hardens
Can cool inside the earth (intrusive) or on its surface from volcanoes (extrusive)
![Page 31: Environmental Science Catalyst 4/14/14](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070421/5681623b550346895dd26cfe/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
TYPO ALERT!!!
METAMORPHIC SHOULD BE SEDIMENTARY!!! (SWITCH THE LABELS)

Sedimentary
Formed from particles of sand, shells, pebbles, and other fragments (together called sediment)
Builds up in layers and over time hardens into rock
Only type to contain fossils
![Page 33: Environmental Science Catalyst 4/14/14](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070421/5681623b550346895dd26cfe/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Metamorphic
Formed under surface of the earth from intense heat and pressure
Some have layered or banded appearance while others do not

The Rock Cycle
The rock cycle slowly changes rocks from one type to another through heating, melting, cooling, weathering, and erosion
