True. The luster of a mineral is described as either metallic or nonmetallic. Metallic luster reflects light like metal, while nonmetallic luster can vary from glassy to earthy in appearance.
One common test to distinguish between nonmetallic and metallic minerals is the streak test. Nonmetallic minerals will typically leave a powder streak of color when rubbed against a white ceramic plate, while metallic minerals will leave a metallic streak.
One property that may be used to distinguish metallic from nonmetallic minerals is their luster. Metallic minerals tend to have a shiny, reflective surface due to their metal content, while nonmetallic minerals have more of a dull or earthy appearance.
Calcite is nonmetallic in terms of its luster. It has a vitreous to pearly luster, which is characteristic of nonmetallic minerals.
