1 ROCKS AND MINERALS UNIT 1 Observing Natural Resources Lab 3 1
2 Vocabulary: Natural Resource: Any naturally occurring substance that is useful Renewable: Able to be replenished Non-renewable: Not easily or quickly replaced Focus Question: What useful properties do natural resources have? Hypothesis: Answer the Focus Question 2
3 Procedures: Read through steps 1-6 on page B-5 of the text book. DATA: Natural Resource Observations Ranking Reason(s) for Ranking Coal Rock with Fossils Rock with garnets Wood 3
4 Analysis: 1. What was the most valuable natural resource, according to the class? 2. What was the least valuable resource according to the class? 3. What else would you like to know about these natural resources to help you determine their value? Conclusion: What was the purpose of this lab? Summarize what we did during this investigation. What did you learn from completing this lab? 4
5 The Diamond Dilemma Lab 4 Focus Question: What information can you get from examining a material? 5
6 Hypothesis State your own answer to the focus question. Vocab: Crystal Shape : The shape of a crystal sample of a mineral, generally referred to by mineralogists as crystal habit Luster: The shininess of a material Property: The nature of a material, such as the physical qualities of color, hardness, state, density, and conductivity. 6
7 Vocabulary: Mineral: A naturally occurring (solid) material that has a specific chemical composition, crystal form and characteristic physical properties. Crystalline solids are found naturally in the earth. There are about 3,500 different minerals Data: Property Observations of Material Color Transparency Luster Crystal Shape Size (longest edge) Harder or softer than copper Harder or softer than glass 7
8 Procedures: Follow the procedures in the lab handout. Analysis: 1. Every group received a sample of the same material. Which observation(s) do you believe will be most useful when trying to identifying the material? 2. What material do you think this is? Could it be diamond? Explain using your observations. 8
9 Conclusion: What was the purpose of this activity? What did you do during this activity? What did you learn by completing this activity? Analyzing Diamond Data Lab 5 9
10 Vocabulary: Acrylic: a type of synthetic (man made) plastic. Diamond: A mineral typically colorless and made of pure carbon. The hardest naturally occurring substance. Fluorite: A mineral that can form octahedral crystals. Vocabulary: Glass: A solid substance that does not form crystals. Glass is not a mineral. 10
11 Focus Question: What additional information would we need to identify the unknown sample? Hypothesis: State your own prediction to the focus question. 11
12 Procedure: Follow steps 1-7 on page B-12 of the text book. Analysis Questions: 12
13 Conclusions: What was the purpose of this activity? What properties are most useful when identifying a mineral? How did you identify your mineral sample as fluorite? Mineral Properties Lab 6 13
14 Vocabulary: Crystalline structure: the regular pattern of atoms, molecules, or ions in a crystal. Geologist: Scientist who studies the earth and the changes that take place on and beneath its surface. Vocabulary cont.: Rock: A naturally occurring solid substance composed of one or more minerals. Synthetic: A material that is not naturally occurring. Synthetic materials are made by humans instead of by nature. 14
15 Focus Question: What makes diamonds a valuable natural resource? Hypothesis: :Answer the focus question here 15
16 Procedures: Read through the lab on page B-14 and complete student data sheet 15.1 Three-Level Reading Guide. Analysis Questions: 1. Does the size of a mineral affect its properties? 2. Is the mineral color always the same as the streak color? 3. How do you determine mineral hardness? 16
17 Mineral ID Lab 7 Focus Question: How do we identify an unknown mineral? Hypothesis: Write your answer to the focus question here 17
18 Procedure: 1. Obtain a tray with your materials 2. Choose 1 of the 7 minerals to observe first 3. Identify the mineral s color and luster (The mineral will have either a metallic or non-metallic luster) 4. Identify the color of the mineral s streak by rubbing it against the porcelain plate. 5. Determine the hardness of the mineral by scratching the mineral against copper and glass. DATA: Mineral Name Color Luster (metallic or non-metallic) Streak Color Hardness (1-10) A= B= C= D= E= F= G= 18
19 Analysis: 1. Which mineral(s) that you tested was/were the hardest? 2. Which mineral(s) had a metallic luster? 3. Which mineral(s) had a different streak color than the color of the mineral? Analysis: 4. Identify the Minerals: A= B= C= D= E= F= G= 19
20 Conclusion: What was the purpose of this activity? (what were we trying to learn) What did you do during this activity? (summarize your procedure) What did you learn about minerals and mineral identification by completing this lab? Rock Formation Lab 8 20
21 Focus Question: How are rocks formed? Hypothesis: Answer the focus question here Vocabulary: Magma: Molten rock found beneath the Earth s surface Lava: Molten rock found on the surface of Earth. 21
22 Vocabulary: Igneous: Rocks that have formed from the cooling of magma and/or lava. Metamorphic: A rock formed when another rock has been changed because of Earth s heat and/or pressure Sedimentary: A type of rock that is made up of sediments that have been cemented together, such as shale, sandstone, and limestone. Turn to Page B-34 22
23 Analysis: Answer analysis questions 1-3 on page B-37 Conclusions: What was the purpose of the reading? Explain the different ways that rocks can form. Does the cost of an object always reflect its true value? Explain. 23
24 Identifying Rock Types Lab 9 Focus Question: How can we identify different types of rocks? Hypothesis: Answer the focus question 24
25 Igneous Rock Igneous rock is formed by the cooling of magma. Surface can be as smooth as glass or individual crystals may be large enough to see by eye. Crystals seem to interlock like a puzzle 25
26 Sedimentary Formed by Tiny rock pieces cemented together Can contain fossils Can feel individual sand or pebbles Can be crumbly Layers 26
27 Metamorphic Formed by high heat and/or high pressure of the earth Often may see bands, like the rock was pressed together. 27

Interlocking crystals/shiny surfaces Rock Review (Sedimentary): Formed by Tiny rock pieces cemented together Can contain fossils Can feel individual sand or pebbles Can be crumbly Can be lighter than other types of rocks 38
39 Rock Review (Metamorphic): Formed by high heat and/or high pressure of the earth Often may see bands, like the rock was pressed together. Bands of color sandwiched together, may be wavy. Making Minerals Lab 10 39
40 Vocabulary: Model: any representation of a system, or its components, to help one study and understand how it works. Rock Cycle: the continual process that form and break down rocks, often resulting in the formation of one rock type from another. Model: The rock cycle 40
