METHODS USED TO IDENTIFYING MINERALS
The hardness of a mineral can be measured by its resistance to scratching or abrasion. The Mohs scale is a set of 10 common minerals chosen for comparative hardness. The minerals are arranged in order of increasing hardness; each mineral will scratch all that precedeit, and be scratched by all that follow it. The Mohs scale is as follows:

Mill (grinding) - Wikipedia
A mill is a device that breaks solid materials into smaller pieces by grinding, crushing, or cutting. Such comminution is an important unit operation in many processes.There are many different types of mills and many types of materials processed in them. Historically mills were powered by hand or by animals (e.g., via a hand crank), working animal (e.g., horse mill), wind or water ().

The rods grind the ore by tumbling within the the mill, similar to the grinding balls in a ball mill. To prevent the conditions leading to rod charge tangling, the length to diameter ratio is maintained at 1.4 to 1.6. Rod mills accept feed up to about 50 mm (2 in.) and produce a product in the size range of 3000 to 270 mm (–4 to –35 mesh).

How to Identify Minerals in 10 Steps - ThoughtCo
Sep 04, 2019 A mineral may have good cleavage in one or two directions but fracture in another direction. To determine cleavage and fracture, you'll need a rock hammer and a safe place to use it on minerals. A magnifier is also handy, but not required. Carefully break the mineral and observe the shapes and angles of the pieces.
