Jim,
This is square in the middle of my life as a gold exploration geo. There is

fancy creative math involved with this one. Carefully determined the volume

the rock. If the matrix is primarily
If the two combine as some sort of conglomerate (like a breccia), and
the combination doesn't result in voids, then the bulk density can't be
lower than the density of the lowest density material. But if the two
combine chemically, resulting in an alloy or in the formation of

the precise definition of a rock or mineral so I'd think of it
this way.
Kindest wishes

Jim,
In a practical sense, this is quite possible since there are more
possibilities, where your question

Hey Jim,
Gold, huh? Break
Hi all!
I have a question that relates to meteorites...sort of.
If I have two minerals that are combined that have two different densities,
could the bulk density ever be lower the density of the mineral with the
lowest density?
Examples (to make it easy) Mineral 1 = 3g/cc Mineral 2 =
