Common rock-forming minerals. These are specimens of minerals from the University of Auckland's collection. Along with the common rock-forming minerals, we have included apatite, corundum, diamond, fluorite, topaz and talc to illustrate minerals used in Moh's Scale of Hardness.Click on either a thumbnail, or the name in the list at the side, for details and larger photographs of each mineral.hese are specimens of minerals from the University of Auckland's collection.

Thus, of the eight common igneous minerals, only quartz, K-feldspar, and muscovite are commonly seen in sedimentary rocks. These minerals are joined in sedimentary rocks by clay minerals, calcite, dolomite, gypsum, and halite. The clay minerals form during mineral weathering.The other four minerals are salts that precipitate as water evaporates. The elemental constituents of these salts are ultimately also derived from mineral weathering.yrite is not a rock-forming mineral, but it is commonly present in sedimentary rocks that formed in or near seawater (oceans, lagoons, and coastal swamps).
