Haiway's silicate and non silicate mineral presentation
1.
2. What are silicate and non-silicate minerals?
Silicate and non-silicate minerals are the two
most common types of classification of minerals
based on chemical composition!!!
3. Silicate Minerals
Minerals that contain silicon and oxygen are silicate
minerals!!!
Silicate minerals make up 90% of the earth’s crust!!!
The other 10% are non-silicate minerals!!!
Silicon and oxygen usually combine with other
elements such as iron, aluminum, magnesium, and
potassium to make up silicate minerals!!!
4. Common Types of Silicate Minerals
Quartz- Basic
Building block
of many rocks
5. Common Types of Silicate Minerals
Feldspar – Main
component of
most rocks on
earth’s surface
6. Common Types of Silicate Minerals
Mica – Mica
minerals
separate into
sheets easily
when they
break
7. Non-Silicate Minerals
Minerals that do not contain oxygen or silicon
are non-silicate minerals!!!
Some of these minerals are made up of
elements like carbon, oxygen, fluorine, and
sulfur!!!
8. Important Classes of Non-Silicate Minerals
Native Elements – Gold
Minerals made up
of only one
element. Some
types of native
elements are
copper, gold, and
silver. Native
elements are used
in things like
communications
and electronics
equipment.
9. Important Classes of Non-Silicate Minerals
Carbonates – Minerals Fireworks
that contain oxygen
and carbon in their
composition. We use
carbonates for
building
stones, cement, and
fireworks.
10. Important Classes of Non-Silicate Minerals
Halides – Halides are Detergent
compounds that
form when
sodium, calcium, an
d potassium
combine with
fluorine, iodine, brom
ine, and chlorine.
Halides are used in
detergents and in
the chemical
industry.
11. Important Classes of Non-Silicate Minerals
Oxides – Paint
Compounds
that form when
an element
forms
chemically with
oxygen. Oxides
are used to
make
abrasives, paint,
and airplane
parts.
12. Important Classes of Non-Silicate Minerals
Sulfates – Minerals Toothpaste
that contain oxygen
and sulfur. Sulfates
are used in things like
paint, cement, tooth
paste, and
cosmetics.
13. Important Classes of Non-Silicate Minerals
Sulfides – Minerals Batteries
that contain one or
more elements
combined with
sulfur. Sulfide is used
in things like
batteries, electronic
parts, and
medicines.
