The streak of a mineral refers to the color left on a streak plate after rubbing a mineral across its surface. A streak plate can be as simple as the unglazed side of a porcelain tile.

The streak color may differ from the color observed in a specimen. The streak is used as an aid in the identification of minerals.

If an inoculated plate had colonies between the streak lines what would you conclude?
It depends, if there is no growth or colony appearance on streak line and only it shows growth in b/w the streak line then it is certainly a contamination and if there are colonies on streak line and not ressemble with the streak culture then also it is a contamination but there can be a chance that colony appears due to some fault in streaking procedure and the inoculum drops between the streak line so it depends.
