Many of the mineralogical and geological samples react with different acids. One common example is using vinegar or hydrochloric acid to test if a rock is quartz or calcite. Calcite will fizz and dissolve if there's enough acid, while quartz won't. Some rock/geologic samples may seem to do nothing, but actually give off gas when exposed to acid. One example putting HCl on a sample and getting H2S04 (hydrogen sulfide) as a by product. Simply put, if you know where the minerals occur on the Periodic Table, it should not be difficult designing experiment to determine what minerals you're working with as all of them have different levels of reactivity. source: Personal Experience and family members who were geologist.
Someone can likely give a more in depth answer than what I've written. One caution.... write out a formula with the chemical, salts, acids, bases etc that you're using and what you think the mystery mineral is. That way if it turns out you were wrong about what the mineral was you have a better idea of what it could be. I've also found that magnets can help narrow down mineralogical samples. There's also flourescence tests, crystal chromatography. Even finding that a mineral appears non reactive can help narrow down and identify it.... possibly even show new uses for it. The short answer after all that.... there are many ways knowledge of chemistry can be used in the fields of mineralogy and geology.
Sport psychology is an interdisciplinary science that draws on knowledge from many related fields including biomechanics, physiology, kinesiology and psychology.
Biotechnology has a wide scope in India and other countries. It is now the second growing sector and has vast employment opportunities. Biotechnology is a mix of biology, mathematics, physics and chemistry. The fields that a B.Tech can pursue are: Medical and Health Care, Industrial Research and Development, Food Processing, Chemical Engineering, Drug Designing and Manufacture and other related fields.
The duration of Peace in the Fields is 1.52 hours.

Some are chemistry, geology, biology and astrology
depends on what you're focused on. There are many fields of expertise for a geologist. For example oil geology, geophysics, mineralogy, paleontology, structural geology and many others. With those fields you can work usually on a mining corporation. Very lucrative!
the sciences, such as physics, chemistry, astronomy, and geology, that analyze the nature and properties of energy and nonliving matter. The fields of inquiry to which the general designation science may be appropriately applied are broadly divided into social science and natural science. The latter is further subdivided into biology and physical science. Physical science is generally considered to include astronomy, chemistry, geology, mineralogy, meteorology, and physics. These overlap more or less, as illustrated by astrophysics, chemical physics, physical chemistry, and geophysics. There is overlap, likewise, between the physical and biological sciences, as seen in biochemistry, biophysics, virology, and the close relation between geology and paleontology. The boundaries implied in all such classifications are artificial and consist of regions where one field shades into another. See also Astronomy; Biology; Chemistry; Geology; Meteorology; Mineralogy; Physics; Science.
there are many branches of science but the 5 main fields are: - chemistry - Biology - geology - physics - Astronomy
Not everything on Earth is chemistry. Earth is also comprised of geology, physics, biology, and other scientific fields. Additionally, there are non-scientific aspects of Earth such as art, history, culture, and human society that are not directly related to chemistry.
I'm not sure exactly what you are looking for here, so I'll give a lot of answers, heh. These roughly range from widest to narrowest meanings. Earth Sciences, Geology, Mineralogy, gemology, and crystallography.
Physical and historical geology. Meteorology is weather science.
Organic chemistry and Inorganic chemistry
the application of geology to many fields for example economical geology, petro geology, enviromental geology this is related to the various human activities therefor it is called applied geology.
