Why can't color alone be used to identify most minerals?

Asked by ayuenger

Answer (2)

Because a lot of minerals have the same color

Answered by nokutoyi2 | 2024-06-10

Color is unreliable for identifying most minerals due to variations within mineral families, the influence of impurities, and the possibility of different minerals sharing similar colors. It is crucial to consider other physical and chemical properties for accurate mineral identification.
