Answer:

Luster

Explanation:

Luster is defined as the property of a mineral by which the light is reflected from the mineral's surface. It is a physical property and it differs from mineral to mineral. This property helps in the identification of minerals.

There are mainly two types of luster. They are as follows-

(a) <u>Metallic luster-</u> When a mineral has a shiny appearance, then it is called a metallic luster. For example, Pyrite.

(b) <u>Non-metallic luster-</u> When a mineral does not have any shiny appearance, then it is regarded as a non-metallic luster. For example, Quartz.

The non-metallic luster is again divided into several types, such as pearly, earthy, dull, silky, resinous and vitreous luster.

The epicenter of an earthquake is the area where the least amount of damage takes place.
Aleks [24]

Answer:

Yes it can be.

Explanation:

Surface damage. The epicenter is directly above the earthquake's hypocenter (also called the focus). In most earthquakes, the epicenter is the point where the greatest damage takes place, but the length of the subsurface fault rupture may indeed be a long one, and damage can be spread on the surface across the entire rupture zone.
