This module, the second in a series on minerals, describes the physical properties that are commonly used to identify minerals. These include color, crystal form, hardness, density, luster, and cleavage.
Minerals can be classified into distinct groups based upon similar atomic structure and/or chemical composition. A mineral is a naturally-occurring inorganic solid with a specific chemical composition and a characteristic regular, geometric arrangement of its constituent atoms.Minerals can be classified into distinct groups based upon similar atomic structure and/or chemical composition (which is mainly based on their anions).inerals can be classified into distinct groups based upon similar atomic structure and/or chemical composition (which is mainly based on their anions).
