1 Lab 1: Mineral Identification OLLI Rock ID and Geologic Mapping Name: Introduction: In this lab activity you will become familiar with minerals and identifying their different properties. This lab will also introduce you to the deductive process where you will utilize the results of each property test to identify the name of the mineral from an established key. Materials provided: Procedure: Streak plate Penny Nail Metal plate 1. Go through and test each mineral for: Hardness Color Streak Glass Magnet Dilute HCl Hand lens Cleavage/fracture Density Luster 2. Be sure to record all information in the data table 3. After you have tested all minerals for all 6 properties, compare your results for each mineral to the established mineral chart in the back. Use this chart to identify the mineral name. Property Descriptions and Testing Procedures Color: This is probably the most easily observed property of minerals. However, color often varies widely and is the least reliable property for identification. Streak: The color of the mineral when powdered. To test for streak, draw the mineral against an unglazed porcelain tile (streak plate). Streak is more useful for identification than color. Cleavage or fracture: These two properties refer to the way in which a mineral breaks. Cleavage is an orderly breakage in well-defined planes, meaning the mineral has flat sides. Fracture is a random breakage. If a mineral breaks with rough, random surfaces, it is said to have fracture. This can vary widely so be patient and careful. Density: Compare the relative heft of a mineral by holding it in your hand and comparing it to other minerals of about the same size. In general, metallic minerals are heavier than non-metallic minerals. To simplify, we classify minerals as 1.) Light, 2.) Heavy, 3.) Very heavy. Density = mass/volume 1
2 Hardness: A mineral s hardness is it s resistance to scratching. Mohs Scale of Hardness, this scale uses common everyday objects to test hardness of each mineral sample. Below is the resulting table. Moh s Hardness Scale Rating Type Mineral Object used to test Hardness Talc Gypsum Calcite Fluorite Apatite Feldspar Quartz Topaz Corundum Diamond Talc Fingernail-2.5 Penny-3.5 Nail-4.5 Glass-5.5 Steel file-6.5 Streak plate-7 Luster: Refers to the way that a mineral reflects light. The simplest distinction is between metallic luster (shiny and gold or silver color) and nonmetallic luster (does not look like a metal in color, although it may be shiny). Particular types of nonmetallic luster include pearly, vitreous (glassy), resinous (has the appearance of resin), silky, and earthy (dull). Other properties Here are three additional tests that you should perform on all your rocks. If you get a positive test, record it in your other properties column. TASTE TEST: Certain Minerals have a particular taste. Two minerals, halide and quartz, are very similar in appearance. One simple way to tell them apart is that halide has a salty taste whereas quartz has no taste. SMELL TEST: Certain minerals give off a very distinct smell. Sulfur, for instance, smells like rotten eggs. ACID TEST: You should test your rocks to see if they will react with hydrochloric acid. Put a single drop on each rock, one at a time. If you immediately see a vigorous fizzing, it is calcite. Dolomite reacts only when scratched. MAGNET TEST: If one of your rocks is attracted to a magnet, it may be magnetite. But check all the other properties too because other iron ores are also easily magnetized. 2
