Minerals
• What is a mineral?• Defined as a naturally occurring inorganic
solid substance. • Where do we find minerals in our
environment?• Minerals are commonly found in rocks,
soils, and sand.

Mineral Formation
• How do minerals form?• Minerals are formed by crystallization: • 1. Cooling and solidification of magma.• 2. From water- evaporation, chemical
reactions and temperature changes• 3. Minerals subject to change due to heat
and pressure.

Common Minerals
• The back of our reference tables contains information for common rock forming minerals.
• What are some information do the reference tables tell us about minerals?

• Aim: How are minerals identified?• Do now: Use the reference tables and
answer the following set of questions.• HW: .• Quiz on Wednesday. The characteristics
of a mineral and the ways to identify them

Mineral Identification
• How do we identify minerals?• Minerals are identified by their physical
and chemical properties.• Experienced geologists can easily identify
and classify minerals out in the field. They have achieved this ability through careful observations of the minerals physical properties.

• Open up to page 104 of your text book and glance through pages 104 to 107 and list and write a short sentence on the ways minerals are identified in your notes.

Mineral Identification• Geologists use the following to help identify
minerals:• 1. Color- the apparent color of the mineral• 2. Luster- Luster refers to how light reflects off
the surface of a mineral• 3. Streak- The streak refers to the powder left
by the mineral when applied to a hard surface. • 4. Hardness- The hardness of a mineral is
referred as the resistance to being scratched. • 5. Cleavage- Cleavage refers to how minerals
break along parallel planes. • 6. Specific gravity• 7. Chemical Tests

Color
• Color: When observing a mineral, the first thing that we notice is its color. The color may give us clues to what type of mineral we are looking at.
• However you can not go on color alone• Let’s look at two examples: Quartz and
Calcite
![Page 20: Unit 4 Chapter 2 Minerals](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062323/56815cf7550346895dcafa4e/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Color
• Notice how quartz is similar in color. • Some minerals may have the same color,
so we use other characteristics.

Color
• Quartz can appear in three colors:• Rose, Clear, Smokey• http://www.pitt.edu/~cejones/GeoImages/1Minerals/1IgneousMineralz/Quartz/Quartz_3Types.jpg

Streak
• Notice the streak or powder left by galena
• Each mineral has a distinctive streak.
