Luster means to give shine to a surface. Luster is a general idea of a mineral but you may need to be more specific. By specific I mean what kind of luster does the mineral have? Metallic, Non-Metallic, Vitreous, Resinous, Pearly, Greasy, Silky, or Adamantine. These are more specific types of luster than just saying luster.

loris [4]
This statement is true, mainly because it's easy to tell which species are to be classified as what and it would be easy to classify new species by taking characteristics and applying them to already existing species.
