The process is intended to produce individual 6. 6 particles which are either wholly mineral or wholly gangue, that is, to produce liberation. Since the mechanical forces producing fracture are not susceptible to detailed control, a class of particles containing both mineral and gangue (middling particles) are also produced.

There are probably more ways to form minerals than there are types of minerals themselves. Minerals can form from volcanic gases, sediment formation, oxidation, crystallization from magma, or deposition from a saline fluid, to list a few. Some of these methods of mineral formation will be discussed below. Formation from Hot Material

Water erodes rocks, wind transports sand, and freezing temperatures can create permafrost. A climate is an area in which weather patterns are consistent, and each climate can sway the soil formation process. The weather in a climate can not only determine how the soil forms, but also govern whether wild plants can grow fruitfully in the area.
