The streak, or color of a mineral's powder, represents the true color of a mineral without the effects observed in a hand specimen due to impurities, inclusions or differences in light reflection.
Specimen color is the least reliable method of mineral identification. Better characteristics are streak, density, and crystal structure.
A streak test is used to determine a minerals streak color. This can help in the identification of minerals.
The powder indicates the true color of the mineral and is an aid in mineral identification. That can also be called a streak.
A mineral specimen's color can be affected by radiation or impurities. A better method would be to use the mineral's streak, the color of the mineral in powdered form.
The streak, or color of a mineral's powder, represents the true color of a mineral without the effects observed in a hand specimen due to impurities, inclusions or differences in light reflection.
The powder indicates the true color of the mineral and mineral identification. That is also known as streak.
Streak, hardness, and crystalline structure.
Color is the observable color of a mineral specimen in natural light. Streak is the color of a mineral when powdered. The color of a specific mineral specimen may be different than its streak color. Because many impurities can alter the color of a mineral, but not the streak, streak is a more accurate predictor in mineral identification.
