20:35 "This [piece of chalk] is the mineral talc" I doubted that, so I checked wikipedia Chalk is a fine limestone - almost entirely calcium carbonate Talc is (hydrated) magnesium silicate, so an entirely different mineral

Comment from : Lori L Mangold

So fossilized poop, copalite, it is not considered a rock, since an animal created it I love geology, and minerals, crystals, and and gems I'M old enough to be a Grandma, I like the easy way you explain things, I've been to lots of gem shows, and done a lot of rock hunting throughout my years,
