mineralogists want to see how the mineral is different from its appearance
Because they want to exprese there congucation
They use all their senses in their work.
they use their senses because they are supposed to see the Mohs scale of the rocks. They test it out, they put stuff like oil on them, and they smell, touch what it feels like and they hear the noise of the rock by banging it and when their done they write their feelings on an expiriment paper. Thank you :)
The color left on a streak plate when the mineral is scratched on the surface of the plate. Different minerals have different streak colors. The mineral is tested for hardness to see where it lies on the Mohs scale. The crystal structure (othorhombic, tetragonal, triclinic, isometric, monoclinic, or trigonal), will help identify the mineral. Different minerals have different densities and weights.
Silicate minerals can be light or dark, but Mafic minerals are dark, which is why Basalt appears dark, while Granite is light because Quartz is also light (in colour, not density).
A mineral or an aggregate of minerals from which a valuable constituent, especially a metal, can be profitably mined or extracted is known as ore, while the ordinary rock does not has any economical value.
Yes, the minerals that make upa rock partially determine how fast it weathers. But while there is some truth in this statement, the answer has to be false because the environment the rock surface is exposed to also determines how fast it weathers.
Recording observations is important because it provides a permanent record of your findings, allowing for accurate data collection, analysis, and interpretation. It also helps to track changes over time and enables others to replicate the study or further investigate the specimen based on your observations.

The appropriate steps to take when examining a patient are inspection, auscultation, palpation and percussion.

3 senses: Ears for hearing, Eyes for watching, Hand for feeling.
"If communication is viewed as a process, we are forced to adapt our examinations and our examining instruments to the challenge of something in motion, something that is changing while we are in the very act of examining it."

While not even nearly all co-factors are minerals, some minerals are indeed cofactors; such as Iron in Haemoglobin.
Yes and No, while some metal ores may indeed be vein minerals, not all vein minerals are metal ores and not all metal ores are vein minerals.
Fluorite does not go with the others. It belongs to Halide minerals, while the others (quartz, feldspar, and hornblende) belong to Silicate family of minerals.
