    The document describes observations of a mineral sample made by Jordan B. The sample is identified as augite based on its black and gray color, really shiny luster that is 60% smooth and 40% rough, lack of density and hardness, and source near the Ken River. Two initial guesses of augite and obsidian were made before confirming the mineral as augite. Physical attributes including color, luster, texture, density, hardness, and source location are reported.
