Can cows eat too much mineral?

It depends on whether they've been lacking mineral for a long period of time or not. Usually when cattle have not had access to a certain type of mineral or even a mineral block for a long period of time, they will try to "eat" as much of it as they can until they are satisfied. You may say that they can eat too much mineral in one sitting, but often the level of mineral that a cow ingests is not enough to cause significant toxicity to her. Most of it will be expelled out of her system as feces and/or urine. But, if you keep up with a good mineral program and keep adding the same minerals that your cattle need, they won't over indulge on it because it's in their system and they're not deficient for it.

How can tell if a mineral is soft?

To my understanding, there is a rock/mineral hardness scale from 1-10. 1 being chalk and 10 being a diamond. To figure out if a rock/mineral is soft, they do a scratch test and which ever one looses bits and pieces is the softer of the two and visa versa. You repeat this step to see where it falls in the hardness scale.
