The first-appearance of these key or index minerals results from chemical reactions that produce the new mineral at the expense of other minerals present in the rock before the reaction proceeded The chemical reactions responsible for the production of the index minerals are complex and need not be understood in detail for this course
If the green mineral is chlorite the rock should be named chlorite schist ^ Greisen is a pneumatolytically altered granitic rock Greisen contains lots of quartz and mica plus several exotic minerals like cassiterite tourmaline topaz etc Greised is a metamorphic rock that metamorphosed itself — hot fluids that altered the rock were provided by the cooling magma body itself ^
In a region containing multiple kinds of rock their relative weathering resistance or lack thereof helps shape the lay of the land Roughly speaking rock layers standing high on the countryside are more resistant to weathering as well as erosion – the two forces go hand-in-hand – than those underlying valleys and other lowlands
Anorthosite can be both a rock and a mineral because the definition of a rock allows it to be a solid combination of crystals of one or more minerals In the case of an anorthosite rock I think the minimum amount of anorthosite mineral the rock ca
Diamond has many unequaled qualities and is very unique among minerals It is the hardest known substance it is the greatest conductor of heat it has the highest melting point of any substance (7362 F or 4090 C) and it has the highest refractive index of any natural mineral Diamond is number 10 on the Mohs scale and is approximately 4 times harder than Corundum which is number 9 on
24/01/2014'metallic mineral' is actually not always a very useful term pretty much every mineral out there has metal in it of some kind It's often used as a group descriptor for either minerals which have a metallic lustre or - more commonly - for minerals which are used as economic reserves for extracting a particular metal (e g bauxite might be considered a metallic mineral because it's the prime
These rocks do not have planar shapes of strain Marble is a non-foliated rock a characteristic that allows it to be used as a sculpting material and in architecture Where a rock has undergone differential strain the kind of foliation that is formed is dependent on the metaphoric grade
Along with the common rock-forming minerals we have included apatite corundum diamond fluorite topaz and talc to illustrate minerals used in Moh's Scale of Hardness Click on either a thumbnail or the name in the list at the side for details and larger photographs of each mineral

Welcome to the Punpedia entry on rock puns! This entry has a lot in common with the geology puns entry so head over there if you don't find the perfect pun here Rock Puns List Each item in this list describes a pun or a set of puns which can be made by applying a rule
09/01/2007Why is granite not a mineral? Follow 4 answers 4 Report Abuse Are you sure you want to delete this answer? Granite is an igneous rock composed of several minerals Here is a list of some minerals that can be present in granite Also describe granites mineral composition and explain granite's origin ?

The following is a list of rock types recognized by geologists There is no agreed number of specific types of rocks Any unique combination of chemical composition mineralogy grain size texture or other distinguishing characteristics can describe a rock type Additionally different classification systems exist for each major type of rock
Fracture is a break in a mineral that is not along a cleavage plane Fracture is not always the same in the same mineral because fracture is not determined by the structure of the mineral Minerals may have characteristic fractures (Figure 9) Metals usually fracture into jagged edges If a mineral splinters like wood it may be fibrous
11/10/2013Your post is correct but there's a few things to note A GOOD QUALITY fully synthetic oil is the best for the engine (not all oil manufacturers have good quality standards or use proper full synth base oil!) and 10w40 isn't suitable for all modern bikes Alot of bikes can be run on good mineral oil as long as it's changed at the recommended service intervals

- The lack of quartz in an igneous rock might be solely attributed to the bulk chemical composition of the magma it formed from if the concentration of SiO 2 is too low it does not allow for quartz to form as a mineral simply because there is no silica left over from the mineral forming processes
Note that a rock with a composition slightly above x and above the Garnet - Chlorite tie line like composition y in the AFM diagrams above would still have a different mineral assemblage above the isograd but it would be one that contained Staurolite below the isograd but Biotite above the isograd

Mineral oil is used in a variety of industrial/mechanical capacities as a non-conductive coolant or thermal fluid in electric components as it does not conduct electricity and functions to displace air and water Some examples are in transformers where it is known as transformer oil and in high-voltage switchgear where mineral oil is used as an insulator and as a coolant to disperse
12/04/2017Travertine also called Mexican onyx forms near natural springs As calcium carbonate collects and crystalizes over the years small plants and animals grow and die on its surface creating small empty pockets in the rock Travertine rates closer to a 4 or 5 on Mohs' scale depending on the exact mineral specimen
Minerals are not equivalent to rocks A rock is an aggregate of one or more minerals or mineraloids Some rocks such as limestone or quartzite are composed primarily of one mineral – calcite or aragonite in the case of limestone and quartz in the latter case Other rocks can be defined by relative abundances of key (essential) minerals a granite is defined by proportions of quartz
Cleavage in structural geology and petrology describes a type of planar rock feature that develops as a result of deformation and metamorphism The degree of deformation and metamorphism along with rock type determines the kind of cleavage feature that develops Generally these structures are formed in fine grained rocks composed of minerals affected by pressure solution

The exact value of this proportionality for each element is derived by comparison to mineral or rock standards whose composition is known from prior analyses by other techniques Applications X-Ray fluorescence is used in a wide range of applications including research in igneous sedimentary and metamorphic petrology
The mineral usually occurs as small clear olive-green grains and stubby crystals A rock made entirely of olivine is called dunite Olivine is most commonly found below the Earth's surface It gives the rock peridotite its name peridot being the gem variety of olivine
Minerals Lesson #11 A mineral is a solid material made of one substance that occurs naturally on Earth Most of the common minerals are made of crystals A Crystal is a solid formed by a repeating three-dimensional pattern of atoms ions or molecules and having fixed distances between the different parts Minerals that do not grow in these regular or crystalline patterns are called

Composition of Rocks The most well-known mineral of this group is halite (NaCl) or rock salt Figure 10d-6 Halite or rock salt The Oxides are a group of minerals that are compounds of one or more metallic elements combined with oxygen water or hydroxyl (OH) The minerals in this mineral group show the greatest variations of physical
