To determine if a mineral has breakage you would:
Using a streak plate run the mineral over the plate to identify the minerals true color b/c minerals can be effected.
Determine if it is metallic or nonmetallic. There are many different type of luster.
A tendency of some minerals to break along smooth, flat surfaces.
Use the Mohs Hardness Scale to identify a mineral. You scratch the mineral with different materials to determine it's level.
The streak test because the streak will most likely be colorless.
Look at it with a magnifying glass to determine if it has cleavage or fracture.
Streak
It it is not easily scratched and is high on the hardness scale.
How would you perform the streak test?
