Hematite can appear gray in color, but will exhibit a reddish to rust-colored streak.
The stone is likely to be gypsum. Gypsum is a soft mineral that is commonly found in sedimentary rock formations. It has a whitish grey color, a nonmetallic luster, and leaves a colorless streak when scratched against a surface.
In Geology, the 'streak test' is used to identify a mineral by either grinding it to a powder, or scraping across a rough surface to study the streak left behind. It also tests a mineral's hardness.
Hematite is a common oxide mineral. It is composed of iron oxide and is often found as a black, grey, or reddish-brown mineral with a metallic luster. Hematite is an important source of iron ore and is widely distributed in various geological environments.
Silvery grey color :). BTW: Ur Welcome. you may think i spelt grey wrong but you can spell it 2 different ways :)
black to steel or silver-gray, or brown to reddishbrown, or red
granite is grey in color and has crystals of mica, quartz all embedded in it, giving it a shiny and silver appearance
Hematite is typically a dark gray to black mineral with a reddish streak, while galena is a silvery-gray mineral with a cubic crystal structure. One way to differentiate between them is by performing a streak test: hematite will leave a reddish-brown streak, while galena will leave a gray streak. Additionally, galena is heavier than hematite and has a metallic luster.
'streak' is the color that a mineral will leave when rubbed on a piece of unglazed porcelain. It is used to help identify the mineral. For example, arsenopyrite looks very similar to gold, but has a dark grey or black streak. Gold has a yellow streak.
The same color as the writing from a pencil, very dark grey or black. Pencils used to be made of graphite

The cast of The Grey Streak - 1927 includes: William Barrymore
Its grey
Although it appears in many different colors, it is probably cassiterite, SnO2, the main ore of tin.
The streak color of anthracite is typically black.
Stibnite is a dark gray or silvery mineral with a metallic luster, but it can also appear black due to its high lead content. The color may vary depending on impurities in the mineral or the angle it is viewed from.
