All rights reserved. I can use physical properties to identify minerals Luster: the way a mineral reflects light. Color (chemistry & structure influence light absorption): Easy to recognize but can be misleading Streak: the color of the powdered mineral. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Protons: (+) positively charged Neutrons: no charge & have about same mass as protons Electrons: (-) negative charge and have very little mass Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. Question 3: What property of an atom defines what element it is? A. number of electrons B. number of protons C. atomic mass D. number of neutrons Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.

Explain the building blocks of minerals & rocks: atoms, elements, ions, compounds Atoms want to fill their outer electron shell with 8 electrons Oppositely charge ions attract: cations (+) are attracted to anions (-) (1) Ionic bonding: Sodium transfers electron and becomes a cation (+ charge). Chlorine takes the electron and becomes an anion (-charge) The two ions attract and form an ionic bond Halite (table salt) NaCl Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. Explain the building blocks of minerals & rocks: atoms, elements, ions, compounds (2) Covalent bonds: Elements share electrons in order to fill their outermost shell. Ice, H2O Olivine (peridote) (Mg,Fe)2SiO4 (3) Metallic bonding: Bonding between atoms within metals. All “free” electrons shared in an “electron sea.” Gold, Au Copper, cu Explain the building blocks of minerals & rocks: atoms, elements, ions, compounds Atoms want to fill their outer electron shell with 8 electrons Oppositely charge ions attract: cations (+) are attracted to anions (-) Atoms that do NOT have 8 electrons in the outer shell are chemically reactive. Atoms that DO have 8 electrons in the outer shell are chemically inert. You will be able to...

Recognize ways in which mining impacts the environment Mining projects need to consider: Future land use Groundwater Waste Materials Erosion & topsoil Dust & Air Polution Health Impacts Cultural Issues Ecological Impacts Open Pit Mine: The Mirny Diamond Hole, Siberia (the 2nd largest hole in the world) Copper: Cu Acid mine drainage, Summitville CO Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. Utah’s Bingham Canyon Copper Mine 2013 Landslide All the rock that is processed produces only 0.6% copper. The average home uses 180 kg of copper and the average car uses 23 kg. Each person in the U.S. will use 680 kg in their life time. How many kg of rock will be processed? 680 = 0.006 x (mass of rock processed) (mass of rock processed) = 680/0.006=113,333 kg That’s 230,000 tons per person! Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
