3/2 - Leanring about Ch. 9 Minerals

Today, 1-4th period finished up minerals, 6th period got through silicates/non-silicates and all the classes learned about the seven ways to identify minerals:

1. Color
2. Luster
3. Streak
4. Cleavage/Fracture
5. Hardness
6. Crystal Shape
7. Density

You will need these in order to identify your minerals in the gem mine lab.
