Physical Properties of Monzonite

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

Hardness and Strength of Monzonite

The physical properties of Monzonite 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 Monzonite is 6-7 whereas its compressive strength is 310.00 N/mm2. Streak is the color of rock when it is crushed or powdered. The streak of Monzonite is white whereas its fracture is not available. Luster of Monzonite is the interaction of light with the surface of Monzonite. Luster of Monzonite is subvitreous to dull. Monzonite cleavage is not available. The specific gravity of Monzonite is 2.8-3. Monzonite 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.
