What will I learn?

This Mineralogy and Crystallography Course equips you with hands-on skills to identify minerals reliably using structure-focused techniques. Understand how crystal symmetry influences habit, cleavage, hardness, density, and optical properties, then use XRD, petrographic microscopy, and spectroscopy on actual samples. Follow clear workflows, decision trees, and best practices to swiftly progress from field collection to accurate mineral identification.

Elevify advantages

Develop skills

  • Master crystal optics by linking symmetry to colour, birefringence, and extinction swiftly.
  • Gain practical XRD skills for geologists: index peaks, refine cells, and confirm mineral identities.
  • Develop petrographic identification skills: interpret texture, cleavage, and interference colours confidently.
  • Apply spectroscopy techniques: use IR, Raman, and EPMA-EDS to verify mineral structures.
  • Design metamorphic workflows: create efficient, robust field-to-lab mineral identification routines.
