Mineral Crystal

• an individual grain of a mineral

• Earth materials that people need, including minerals, rocks, and fossil fuels

• an Earth material that is composed of and/or was formed by life forms

• a type of sediment deposition in which dissolved minerals come out of solution to form solids, as the formation of chemical sedimentary rocks such as rock salt

Regional Metamorphism

• process of formation of metamorphic rock over large areas dur to an increase in temperature and pressure, usually as the result of mountain building associated with plate collision or convergence

• a model of the interrelationships of the different rock types, the materials they form and the processes that produce the rocks

• rock that forms directly from sediments deposited near the Earth's surface by the processes of cementation, precipitation of minerals, lose of water and compaction

• the color of the powder of a mineral which is usually more consistent than normal mineral color
