What type of rock is clemina granite?
'Clemina' granite may be a trade name associated with a decorative rock. Without a sample, identification would not be possible.
Is ruby and diamond the same type of mineral?
no they are not the same type of mineral.
The rock i found is smooth and white clear with dark freckles What is it?
The rock described could be any number of possibilities. There is just not enough information on the sample description to identify it. Look at a rock and mineral book at the library or go online and type in "rock identification" in the search engine, and you'll have a much better chance at finding out what it is.
Is limonite an igneous sedimentary or metamorphic rock?
Limonite is a recognized mineral by the IMA, although its chemical structure will vary. As a mineral, it is not classified as igneous, sedimentary, or metamorphic in the manner of rock identification
What type of nutrients is calcium?
Mineral.
What type is Sample B on Mineral Identification on Gizmo's?
Sample B on the Mineral Identification Gizmo is calcite.
What method of identification involves only visual observations of the mineral?
The observation method that involves solely visual identification of minerals is called color testing. This method relies on noting the color of a mineral sample, which can provide clues about its composition and potential mineral type. However, it is important to note that color testing alone may not provide definitive identification, and other physical properties should be considered for accurate classification.
What are all the answers on the mineral identification gizmo?
Oh, dude, the mineral identification gizmo has a bunch of answers, like a whole smorgasbord of options. You've got stuff like quartz, feldspar, calcite, and more. It's like a guessing game, but with rocks. So, yeah, those are the answers you might find on that fancy gizmo.
Which stateement about a mineral sample found in a fiel is most likely to inference?
A mineral sample found in a field likely indicates the presence of an underlying mineral deposit in the area. Geologists can analyze the mineral properties to determine the type and potential economic value of the deposit. The sample may provide valuable information about the geological processes that occurred in the area.
What tool do you measure minerals?
A tool commonly used to measure minerals is a refractometer. This instrument determines the refractive index of a mineral sample, which can help identify the type of mineral based on how light is bent as it passes through the sample.
What type of rock is clemina granite?
'Clemina' granite may be a trade name associated with a decorative rock. Without a sample, identification would not be possible.
Does the density of a mineral depend on the size of the mineral sample?
No, to tell how hard a mineral is you either have to test it or determine what mineral it is. Testing uses materials of known hardness such as a fingernail, or copper penny, or scratch plate, if the mineral is scratched by whatever you use to test it is softer. Hardness however is not based on size it will be the same for any sample of the same rock no matter what the size because its based on atomic arrangement and bond type.
What property is generally least useful in identifying minerals?
Density is the least useful property for identification because different specimens of the same type of mineral can vary in size. -Color is the least useful property for identification because it is the most obvious property.
What characteristics do geologists look for when observing a rock sample?
Geologists look for characteristics such as mineral composition, texture, color, grain size, layering or banding, hardness, and any visible fractures or fossils when observing a rock sample. These features can help them identify the type of rock, determine its origin, and understand the geological processes that formed it.
Is ruby and diamond the same type of mineral?
no they are not the same type of mineral.
What type of mineral is fire?
Fire is not a mineral
