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.
Diamond is the hardest naturally occurring mineral and can scratch all other minerals. Talc is the softest of minerals and cannot scratch any other mineral.
