1 Northern Virginia Community College Alexandria, Virginia Dr. Victor P. Zabielski GOL 105: Mineral Identification Lab Objective: Minerals are the basic building blocks of all rocks. The identification of minerals is one of the most basic skills in geology. Although there are over 4000 different minerals, a working knowledge of of them will allow you to identify most rocks by their composition. The objective of this lab is to introduce you to the diagnostic properties of minerals and acquaint you with several of the most common minerals that you will encounter in most rock types. Part I: Diagnostic Properties Provide brief descriptions for each of the following diagnostic properties of minerals. For each property, give an expected range of values (for example, transparency can range from transparent to translucent to opaque). You will use these properties to help you identify the mineral specimens in this lab. Definitions for each of these properties can be found in your Laboratory Manual in Physical Geology (Laboratory 3, p. 37) and in your textbook Essentials of Geology, (Chapter 3, section 3.4, p. 87). Habit (or Shape) Cleavage Fracture
2 Hardness Specific Gravity Color Streak Clarity / Transparency (light penetration) Luster (light reflection) Accesory properties (texture, magnetism, etc..)
3 Part II: Mineral Identification This exercise is meant to get you to learn how to identify minerals using the properties that you described in part I of this lab. First, list the properties of each of the minerals in the accompanying Mineral Identification Charts provided. Some properties will be more easily determined than others. Second, use the flow charts at the end of this lab to help you identify each of the minerals. The flow charts are designed to allow you to use the most basic and simplest properties to first identify the mineral (color and cleavage) and then to further narrow down the minerals identity using other less obvious properties (hardness, streak, specific gravity, etc). Finally, not all properties of every mineral are equally useful. Generally you will be able to identify a mineral by using only two or three primary properties. These will differ for each mineral. For instance, although pyrite has a hardness of 6 6.5, this is not generally a primary property. You will likely be able to identify pyrite by the fact that it is gold colored and has cubic cleavage (3 cleavage planes), thus the color (gold) and cleavage (cubic) will be the primary properties for pyrite. Determine which properties are most valuable in helping you identify each mineral and enter these properties in the last column of your chart. This will be valuable for your study guide. I will distribute an answer key later in the lab, but first try to describe the samples on your own. Figures in your lab manual will also help you determine the identity of the minerals (pages 52 54). Your manual also contains a mineral database (Figure 3.28, pp ) and additional data sheets for your use (pp ) GREAT RESOURCE ALERT! You can also refer to the website for pictures and descriptions of the minerals and rocks. You can find a link to this website on my homepage.
