This is the common method for determining mineral types
Color
Luster
Streak
Hardness
Cleavage
Specific Gravity
Crystal Form
its a rock but it has certain characteristics of magical minerals
Color, streak color, hardness, cleavage, and chemical.
Gold follows all characteristics of mineral First: Its inorganic Second: It occurs naturally Third: Its a solid crystallized form Fourth: It has consistent chemical composition Fifth: It forms crystals
Begin by taking a look at the mineral's color, Examine the mineral and take note of its surface features,Get out the materials needed for the hardness test (see Things You'll need), The number is the hardness, followed by the characteristics of a mineral of that hardness and an example, Next find out your mineral's luster,Now for the streak test, You can also identify a mineral by the way it breaks. If it breaks along a smooth, flat surface (such as mica), it has cleavage. If your mineral breaks along rough, jagged surfaces, it has fracture. Thats all you need to do.
Metamorphic is a group of rocks with similar characteristics. There are minerals in the rocks so they could be considered made of minerals but they are not minerals themselves.
Minerals have to have these five characteristics. The five characteristics are solid, crystal structure, chemical composition, made by nature, and inorganic.Those are five characteristics a mineral are required to have to be a mineral.
no
Some alien races could have mineral based characteristics, if they exist.
A mineral that is useful and economically viable to extract and purify is an ore.
ore,coal
Five physical characteristics of a mineral are: hardness, luster, diaphaneity, colour, and streak.
you are steank okay
The crystallization
The characteristic of a mineral that reflects light is called luster. Diaphaneity or transparency is the characteristics that allow the transmission of light.
Color is the least reliable of a mineral's characteristics used in its identification.
I am awesome
Luster
