What elements do pyrite and magnetite have in common?

Pyrite and magnetite are both metallic minerals that are heavy and have a metallic luster. They are often found in association with each other in certain types of rocks, such as igneous rocks and metamorphic rocks. Both minerals are known for their magnetic properties, with magnetite being strongly magnetic and pyrite being weakly magnetic.


Can a diamond scratch a rock or mineral?

Diamond will scratch all rocks and other minerals, including itself.


What rocks are magnetic?

Many rocks have magnetic properties (are capable of being magnetized, are magnetic or are attracted by a magnet) derived from magnetic minerals in their composition like magnetite, hematite, and ilmenite. The most well known magnetic rock is the lodestone, which is comprised mainly of magnetite.


Can quartz scratch other rocks and minerals?

Yes, quartz is considered a hard mineral ranking 7 on the Mohs scale of hardness, making it able to scratch most other minerals. However, there are harder minerals such as diamond and corundum that can scratch quartz.


Can copper scratch other rocks and minerals?

I would say not likely. Most metals are rather soft in their pure form. One of the most distinguishing characteristics about metals is that they are sectile, or easily cut with a knife. Silver has a hardness (on the Mohs scale) of 3. That is probably not going to scratch many other minerals.


Can barite scratch other rocks or minerals?

Yes, barite is a relatively soft mineral with a Mohs hardness of 3-3.5, so it can be easily scratched by harder minerals. It is unlikely to scratch most common minerals or rocks, but can be scratched by harder minerals such as quartz or topaz.

likely to be either biotite, amphibole, or magnetite. These minerals are known for their dark color and are commonly found in igneous and metamorphic rocks.


What is the scratch table of rocks and minerals?

The scratch table is called the Mohs Scale of Mineral Hardness and measures the hardness of minerals in relation to the known hardest (diamond) and softest (talc) minerals.
