Minerals and their Uses-8/20/09


Choose five minerals, and name their common use. Only choose minerals that you actually use. Also post a picture of one.

Quarts can be used in jewelry as gems. Talc is used in baby powder. Fluorite is used in toothpaste (in which we really do need!). Graphite is used in our pencils (in which we also really need). Jewelry can contain the industrial mineral diamond.
