what type of breakage is more common deavage or fracture
cleavage....
I don't get what you're talking about Talc is white gypsum is clearish----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------In Frederick H. Pough's, "A Field Guide to Rocks and Minerals", you find:GYPSUM (CaSO4∙2H2O).Physical properties: Colorless, white, and light tints; luster glassy, pearly (on cleavage face), and silky; hardness 2; gravity 2.3; fracture conchoidal and fibrous; cleavage two, one perfect micaceous; sectile; often fluorescent in yellow, showing hourglass pattern within crystal, also phosphorescent.Tests: Soluble in hot hydrochloric acid; addition of barium chloride solution gives awhite precipitate. (Talc is insoluble in hot hydrochloric acid)TALC (Mg3Si4O10)2 .Physical properties: White, greenish, gray, almost black; luster greasy to pearly; hardness 1; gravity 2.7-2.8; cleavage micaceous; can be easily cut; greasy feel; translucent to opaque.Distinguishing characteristics: Greasier and softer than brucite, mica, or chlorite.
