What is the use of the hardness scale?
Minerals have a fairly specific range of hardness, based on the Mohs hardness scale. The Mohs scale is based on the ability of a mineral to be scratched, or scratch, another mineral. Using the Mohs scale to determine mineral hardness is one test that can be used to help identify one mineral from others.
