Physical Properties of Charnockite

Physical properties of rocks are used to identify the type of rocks and to discover more about them. There are various physical properties of Charnockite like Hardness, Grain Size, Fracture, Streak, Porosity, Luster, Strength etc which defines it. The physical properties of Charnockite rock are vital in determining its Charnockite Texture and Charnockite Uses.

Hardness and Strength of Charnockite

The physical properties of Charnockite depend on its formation. Physical properties of rocks play an important role in determining its applications in various fields. Rocks are rated on the on the Moh's Hardness Scale which rates the rocks on the scale from 1 to 10. Rocks with hardness 1-3 are soft rocks from 3-6 are medium hardness rocks and 6-10 are hard rocks. The hardness of Charnockite is 6-7 whereas its compressive strength is Not Available. Streak is the color of rock when it is crushed or powdered. The streak of Charnockite is white whereas its fracture is not available. Luster of Charnockite is the interaction of light with the surface of Charnockite. Luster of Charnockite is not available. Charnockite cleavage is not available. The specific gravity of Charnockite is Not Available. Charnockite is opaque in nature whereas its toughness is not available. You can also know all the list of rocks in Opaque Rocks, Translucent Rocks and Transparent Rocks.
