Testing Minerals :)



Mineral Properties


The properties I used by doing this project it was:
Luster: Luster helps us to find out if the minerals is metallic or non-metallic. 
Streak: Show the colors of the minerals is.
Hardness: Tells us if it soft or hard the mineral. 
Cleavage: You can find the way the mineral broke, it can be Cleavage which broke in squares or fracture which broke unequally. 
Other: Tells you if the mineral if magnetic or not.
Composition: Tells what chemicals is on the mineral. 

Reflection 


What did you enjoy most about this project and why?
Wow, one thing I really enjoy about this project is doing the video ( animato), because it was fun recording  and filming my own self. :)


What was most challenging for you during this project and why?
The most challenging for me during this project it was when I supposed to figure it out the actual mineral. It was kind hard because mostly of them are non-metallic and they sometimes seems that they has the color but they don't. 


What new skills did you learn from doing this project? 
Some new skills I learned doing this project it is to describe the minerals. For example, now I can tell what kind of minerals it is just by looking it, if it is cleavage or fracture, the color it is, soft or hard.


Is there anything that you could have done to improve any of your work? Explain.
No.
