A mineral breaks in two ways: cleavage (a definite straight and even break) and fracture (jagged and unpredictable)
One of the two ways that parent rock affect the metamorphic process is through the mineral makeup. Another factor is chemical composition.
glossy, or pearly
the color and streak or luster
The Luster of a mineral is it's appearance in the light. Also there are two types of Luster, metallic and nonmetallic.
Metallic and non-metallic.
fracture or cleavage
two ways are diffuse and regular reflection

Two distinguishing characteristics of a mineral are its crystalline structure and its hardness. Other field tests would include a streak test and possibly a test of specific gravity. Color can also be of some use.
Examples of mineral characteristics: - density - hardness - refractive index - chemical composition - magnetic properties - cleavage - crystal system - radioactivity
