Study Notes
Characteristics of Minerals
- A huge mineral exhibits high specific gravity, indicating a greater density relative to water.
- The mineral's color consistently matches its streak color, providing a reliable identification method.
- The size of the mineral does not influence its specific gravity, meaning that even smaller specimens can also have high density.
