Baseball bats and bicycle frames both contain minerals. Although glass is not a mineral, it is produced from the mineral quartz. Scientists have identified more than 4,000 minerals in Earth's crust. A few are common, but many are uncommon. Figure 2.1: Silver and halite are minerals; the mineral quartz is used to make glass.
DetailsBauxite has a low Mohs hardness of 1.5-3.0, a dull, earthy luster, and low specific gravity of 2.0-2.5. Bauxite forms in moist tropical or subtropical climates when the aluminum-silicate minerals in clayey soils are leached and converted to basic oxides. Typically large and shallow, bauxite deposits are eminently suited for inexpensive strip ...
