The rocks were rather interesting. I had to check for various things such as the type, lustre, colour, hardness, streak colour, cleavage, etc... If it was an igneous rock you had to determine under what conditions it was formed. Fun stuff sorta... except I had a bit of a head cold. Ah well, anyone do mineral identification before? |

Omg, yes. I did that in Geology with the porcelain scratch plates. It got to be annoying when it came to rocks that had no streak (ie most felsic rocks). Mineral identification is kind of fun though, except when you have to sift through the various colours one stone of quartz can be. |

This looks like an interesting study i cant wait till we do something like this in science next year. Playing with rocks are fun. I like donning rocks as my pets. |

I throw a bunch of rocks and stones against more rocks and stones to form sparks. |
