How to Identify Minerals Using the Properties of Common Minerals Chart

In this video, we will explore how to identify minerals using their physical characteristics such as color, streak, luster, cleavage, fracture, hardness, and more, along with the New York State Earth Science Reference Tables Properties of Common Minerals chart. We will look at each of the columns of information in the chart, including the characteristics above and others like distinguishing characteristics and composition. We will walk through an example of mineral identification.

Love the videos! Why skipping the observation that Galina has a cubic cleavage? That feels more reliable than colour in that case

Hi, I've tried to no avail to find on your website the PDF for this chart, which you share usually in the comments of your videos. This is particularly handy in this case, because the characters are too little on my smartphone to follow its contents alongside your explanations. Thanks 😽
