It is part of the sulphide mineral group.
Silver is a transition metal and is a part of the mineral group called the Native Elements group, along with elements like gold and copper.
Yes, tremolite can fluoresce under a blacklight. It may exhibit a weak to moderate green fluorescence.
Yes, hematite is a non-silicate mineral. It is an oxide mineral composed of iron(III) oxide, making it separate from the silicate mineral group which are minerals composed of silicon and oxygen.
No. Silicates are the largest mineral group.
It is part of the sulphide mineral group.
The mineral family that tends to form long needlelike crystals is the amphibole group. Examples of minerals in this group include hornblende and tremolite. These minerals are silicate minerals with a double chain structure, which contributes to their characteristic needlelike crystal habit.
Ruby belongs to the mineral group called corundum, which is made up of aluminum oxide. Corundum also includes sapphire in addition to ruby.
Turquoise is a member of the turquoise group and is classed as a phosphate. Phosphates are a class of minerals that is part of a large and diverse group of minerals.
Silver is a transition metal and is a part of the mineral group called the Native Elements group, along with elements like gold and copper.
Yes, tremolite can fluoresce under a blacklight. It may exhibit a weak to moderate green fluorescence.
Chrysotile asbestos (White) is a Serpentine, Amosite (Grunerite) (Brown asbestos, and Crocidolite (Blue) are Amphiboles
Yes, hematite is a non-silicate mineral. It is an oxide mineral composed of iron(III) oxide, making it separate from the silicate mineral group which are minerals composed of silicon and oxygen.
Zinc is a metal element and is not classified under a specific mineral group. It is commonly found in nature as the mineral sphalerite, which is a zinc sulfide.
The tourmaline group (cyclosilicates)
Chalcopyrite is in the sulfide mineral group.
No, hematite is not a silicate mineral. It is an oxide mineral composed primarily of iron oxide. Silicate minerals are composed of silicon and oxygen atoms.
