Characteristics: Sulphur is a multivalent non-metal, abundant, tasteless and and odorless. In its native form sulphur is a yellow crystalline solid. In nature it occurs as the pure element or as sulfide and sulfate minerals.

# data[].attributes.body
Formed when hydrocarbons come in contact with sulfate minerals in presence of liquid water.

Appearance: Yellow with rough edges

Uses: it is used for making car batteries, fertilizer, oil refining, water processing, and mineral extraction. Other applications for sulfur-based chemicals include rubber vulcanization, bleaching paper, and product making such as cement, detergents, and pesticides.

Fluorite is commercially named fluorspar composed of calcium fluoride (CaF₂).  It is the principal source of fluorine. The same is used in production of hydrofluoric acid, which is used in a wide variety of industrial applications including glass etching. Fluorite tends to occur in well-formed isometric crystals, forming cubes and octahedrons. It also occurs in both massive and earthy forms, and as crusts or globular aggregates with radial fibrous texture.

Appearance: Rough, flat, foggy composition

Family: It is apart of the Gypsum family

Uses: Selenite is used for jewelry and spiritual practices

Characteristics: A glassy luster and slightly

harder than window glass.

Formation: Obsidian is formed when volcanic lava cools

Appearance:black and glassy looking

Used:Obsidian is used for spiritual use,tools,weapons,ornaments(native Americans)

Characteristic: Marble is medium grained, it has small crystals in it, Marble is ranked number 3 on the hardness scale. And the texture is granular.

Formation: Marble forms when a pre-existing limestone rock is heated to such extreme temperatures that mineral grow larger and fuse together

Appearance: Marble is light in it's color marble can be a pure white or a light pink

Used: Marble is used for floors, walls, counter-tops, and columns and pillars

Anthracite Coal forms when bituminous coal undergoes very low-grade metamorphism and structural deformation.

Anthracite Coal is 86%-97% carbon and has the highest heating value of all ranks of coal.

Appearance: Black, Shiny, Hard

Use: Anthracite Coal is a domestic fuel in either hand-fire stoves or automatic stoker furnaces.

Characteristics: Kyanite contains aluminum and silicate.

Information: Kyanite is usually used as a raw material in heat resistant ceramics and abrasives. Kyanite is also found as elongated blade and usually found with garnet, quartz and mica.

Appearance: Kyanite is a colorless ge, and usually found/kept unpolished and raw.

Used: Kyanite is typically used for things like jewelry and spiritual acts.

Oil shale is an organic-rich fine-grained sedimentary rock containing kerogen (a solid mixture of organic chemical compounds) from which liquid hydrocarbons can be produced. In addition to kerogen, general composition of oil shales constitutes inorganic substance and bitumens. Based on their deposition environment, oil shales are classified as marine, lacustrine and terrestrial oil shales.[1][2] Oil shales differ from oil-bearing shales, shale deposits that contain petroleum (tight oil) that is sometimes produced from drilled wells. Examples of oil-bearing shales are the Bakken Formation, Pierre Shale, Niobrara Formation, and Eagle Ford Formation.[3] Accordingly, shale oil produced from oil shale should not be confused with tight oil, which is also frequently called shale oil.[3][4][5]

characteristic :Gypsum is a soft sulfate mineral composed of calcium sulfate dihydrate, with the chemical formula CaSO ₄·2H₂O. It is widely mined and is used as a fertilizer and as the main constituent in many forms of plaster, drywall and blackboard or sidewalk chalk. Gypsum also crystallizes as translucent crystals of selenite.

formation: when water evaporates in mineral soil enuronments .

used ; it can be used for many forms of plaster and sidewalk chalk .

Dolomite is a mineral and a rock-forming mineral that is composed of calcium magnesium carbonate (CaMg(CO3)2). It is named after the French mineralogist Déodat Gratet de Dolomieu, who first described its properties in the late 18th century. Dolomite is often found in sedimentary rock formations and can occur in a variety of colors, ranging from white to gray, pink, green, or even brown.
