Process of extracting valuable minerals from the earths surface. Formations in Which Minerals Occur 1. Veins and Lodes Occurrence of minerals in crevices, cracks or faults in igneous rocks. They are said to occur in veins if they occur there in small quantities. Said to occur in lodes if they occur there in large quantities
Inorganic substances occurring naturally at or below the earth’s surface. Characteristics of Minerals Different degrees of hardness e.g. some are very hard e.g. diamond while others are very soft e.g. talc. Some have atoms arranged in an orderly manner to form crystals e.g. quartz form a 6- sided prism. Varying number of elements e.g. gold
