Their are also different properties of Minerals, these are: color, streak, luster, crystal form, hardness, cleavage, fracture, density, and other distinctive properties.
The second part of the topic is about Rocks, well I'm not obviously talking about rock and roll but I'm talking about Rock that means solid mineral material forming part of the surface of the earth and other similar planets, exposed on the surface or underlying the soil or oceans. Rocks are also rockin' cool cause it have different types: Igneous, Sedimentary, Metamorphic, Magma, Lava, Weathering, and Sediment.
