Learn to identify rocks and minerals, a valuable skill. For those who are interested in minerals, identification knowledge is important. There are a number of basic identifying characteristics of different minerals include: crystal shape, Hardness, luster, Chemistry, density, cleavage, magnetism, chemistry and color. Each one of these different characteristics is an important indicator to help you learn what the mineral is. If you know how to read these clues and put them together, you can determine the various characteristics and you need identify minerals. My prospecting book has a little of this, but there are mineral guides that focus on the topic. It’s not just about color: a lot of people focus too much on it because its so easy to see. But many minerals come in multiple shades and colors. Don't send me pictures, instead watch these videos and learn to identify minerals for yourself. This video is the final part 3 of a 3 part series.
