3. Which is the way a mineral breaks apart in an irregular way? Mineral Cleavage Crystal Fracture

When a  substance that has NO cleavage breaks, the fractures look like ice-cream when it is scooped. These are called conchoidal fractures. They have sharp edges and were used by cavemen as cutting and scraping tools. In the list below, one is a MINERAL with conchoidal fracture. Which is it?Group of answer choicesMicaObsidianQuartzCalcite
