Hawaii is a very young land formation. There are many types and colors of lava, beautiful shells, but not many minerals. You can find the following, if you look closely:

  1. The state mineral (1987) is Black Coral
  2. Olivine (magnesium iron silicate) is found on the island of Hawaii (southern tip)
  3. Magnetite (iron oxide) found on the black sand beaches
  4. Quartz found on Oahu and Maui
  5. Epistilbite (hydrated calcium aluminum silicate) - found in bubbles in lava
