What are 5 characteristics all minerals have in common?

To meet the definition of a mineral, a substance must be an inorganic, naturally occurring solid, with a set parameter of chemical formulas and a crystalline structure. Non-defining physical properties or characteristics of minerals include: hardness, luster, cleavage, crystal structure, chemical formula, streak, radioactivity, refraction, magnetism, and pleochroism.
