5 Minerals

6 What is a Mineral?  It must be inorganic – not formed from living things.  It must be found naturally.  It must have a definite chemical composition.  It must be formed of crystals.(# of faces and angles)  Must be a solid

7 Types of Minerals  Silicates –Minerals that contain silicon and oxygen –90% of the earth’s crust are made of these type of minerals –Ex. Quartz, mica  Non-silicates –Minerals that contain no silicon and oxygen –Ex. Halite, calcite

8 Properties of Minerals  Color –The color of a mineral is not the best way to identify it. –Color depends on many factors and can change from sample to sample.

9 Mineral Properties  Luster –Metallic luster; shiny, looks like a metal (gold, silver, copper) –Sub-metallic luster; dull metal finish(lead, hematite) –Non-metallic; waxy, glassy, dull, pearly(quartz, calcite, sulfur)

10 Types of Luster Metallic Sub-Metallic Non-Metallic

11 Mineral Properties  Streak –color of a mineral in powdered form –the streak is always the same for a mineral no matter what the surface color is. –streak plates are used to determine the color –some minerals leave no streak

12 Mineral Properties  Cleavage –The tendency of a mineral to break along specific planes.  Fracture –When a mineral breaks with no set planes.

13 Mineral Properties  Density –Each mineral has a specific density –Density is the amount of matter in a given space –The more matter in a smaller space the higher the density. –D=m/v

14 Mineral Properties  Hardness –Hardness is the ability of a mineral to resist being scratched. –Mohs scale of hardness developed by German mineralogist Friedrich Mohs organizes minerals by hardness.

15 Mohs Scale of Hardness in order from softest to hardest  1 – Talc  2 – Gypsum  3 – Calcite

16 Mohs Scale of Hardness  4 – Fluorite  5 – Apatite  6 – Orthoclase

17 Mohs Scale of Hardness  7 – Quartz  8 – Topaz  9 – Corundum  10 – Diamond

18 Field Hardness Test  1 – easily scratched by fingernail  2 – scratched by fingernail  3 – easily scratched by nail, won’t scratch a copper penny  5 – Hard to scratch with a nail; won’t scratch glass  7 – scratches glass  8-10 – scratches steel

19 Special Properties of Some minerals  Fluorescence (glows)  Chemical reaction (produces bubbles)  Radioactivity (gives off energy)  Optical properties (can see through them)  Magnetism (attracts things)  Taste-(You should never use taste to identify an unknown mineral)

20 Ore  Is a combination of minerals that has enough of one type of metal or mineral that it can be extracted. –Example: Galena is an ore for Lead
