The reconnaissance team brought back some coarse-grained rocks, in which the individual minerals are quite large, and want you to identify them.
The photographs below show a coarsely crystalline rock containing several minerals. Observe the rock, determine how many minerals are present, and describe the general characteristic of each mineral present (color, presence of cleavage, etc.), as best you can from an image. Then, try to identify each mineral. Write your results in Worksheet 3D.
Complete Assessment 3D on Canvas, which will ask you questions about the minerals in this rock.
