Research thus far has shown that in monominerallic rocks the sound quality appeared to be degraded by various textural characteristics; poor sound quality produced by rocks with low stability minerals was due to the alteration of minerals; sounds produced were caused by transverse vibrations of the samples; and the sound waves of the samples traveled at P-wave velocities.
