Introduction
Minerals are the building blocks of rocks, and understanding their composition and properties is essential in the field of geology. This project focuses on the role of mineralogy in understanding rock properties, which is crucial for various applications such as resource exploration, engineering projects, and environmental studies. By studying the mineral composition of rocks, geologists can infer valuable information about their formation, physical and chemical properties, and potential uses. This project aims to explore the significance of mineralogy in rock analysis and its implications for various geological studies.
