Answer the following question given this paragraph: 

Streak is the color of the powder of a mineral. To do a streak test, you scrape the mineral across an unglazed porcelain plate. The plate is harder than many minerals, causing the minerals to leave a streak of powder on the plate.

This blackish streak tells you that the mineral is not gold, because gold has a gold-colored streak.
