Interview
Students will learn about the origin, development and occurrence of minerals in nature, paragenesis, rock-forming minerals. Systematic review of the most important minerals, their properties, importance and occurrence. Students will also deepen their knowledge of the specific physical properties of minerals (magnetism, fluorescence, radioactivity) and the chemical properties of minerals. In laboratory exercises, they will be introduced to the most important minerals. Students will independently study information about the chemical composition of minerals and their basic systematic classification, which is based on this principle. Expert interview associated with the determination of minerals.
