cleavage directions ~ 1 (ex. Muscovite) 2 @ 90 degrees (ex. orthoclase) 2 not @ 90 degrees (ex. amphibole) 3 @ 90 degrees (ex. halite) 3 not @ 90 degrees (ex. calcite) 4 (ex. fluorite) fracture ~ - Absence of cleavage when a mineral is broken *Conchoidal fracture* - breaks to form smooth curved surfaces like broken glass specific gravity ~ - Ration of the weight of a mineral to the weight of an equal volume of water - Average value is approximately between 2.5 and 3 magnetism ~...
