The Geologist Can Find An Ore Quickly Through Correct Data Talc Gypsum Calcite Fluorite Apatite Orthoclase (Feldspar) Quartz Topaz Corundum Diamond That's cute. Thanks for sharing. For lapidary work all we really care about is, is it harder than a steel knife blade. Sometimes we test to see if something scratches glass, but that's uncommon. Some of us have other desires as well and your list will be helpful for them. Thanks?

We were taught: Tall Girls Can Flirt And Other Queer Things Can Do (But that was back when Queer = Odd)
We were also taught that our job was to determine the difference between a common ore and a virgin metal:)

And gay was synonymous with happy and the rainbow was a beautiful rare sky feature.
