What is Key Physical Properties of Minerals about?

Physical properties are used to identify minerals. The key properties discussed are: 1) Color, luster, hardness, streak, crystal shape and form, cleavage, specific gravity, and fracture which are the main physical properties used to identify minerals. 2) Mohs scale of hardness ranks minerals from 1 (softest) to 10 (hardest) based on their scratch resistance. 3) Cleavage occurs along planes of weakness in minerals and can be described by the number of cleavage planes and angles between them.
