Summative Test in Earth Science

This document contains a summative test in Earth Science. It consists of 4 sections: 1. A table to identify and group minerals based on their physical properties like streak, color, hardness, luster and cleavage. 2. A modified true/false section with 10 statements about physical properties of minerals and their uses. 3. A Venn diagram to compare and contrast 2 minerals by writing 3 similarities and 3 differences between them. 4. Two short answer questions about the streak test and conserving common minerals.
