List the properties that can be used to determine

the identity of a mineral.

Color, streak, luster, density, hardness, crystal structure, cleavage, and fracture.

2,2

What is the way in which a mineral reflects light?

Luster

2,3

Sedimentary Rock

3,3

This type of rock forms from an existing

rock that is changed by heat or pressure.

Metamorphic Rock

3,4

This type of rock is formed from the cooling

of molten rock.

Igneous Rock

4,1

What is an example of a sedimentary rock?

Sandstone or Limestone.

4,2

Does the rock cycle have a beginning or an end?

No, it keeps going because it is a cycle.

4,3

What is the measure of the ability of a mineral to

resist scratching?

Hardness

4,4

This is the splitting of a mineral along smooth,

flat surfaces?

Cleavage

5,1

This is a narrow channel of a mineral that is different from the surround rock.

Vein

5,2

What two ways do minerals form?

By crystallization of magma and lava and by crystallization of materials dissolved in water.

5,3

What is mining?

Extracting minerals from the ground.

5,4

What are the two main types of mines?

Surface and Subsurface mining
