You may consider the mineral identification experiments as simple, but there is no written rule that experiments must be complicated.
If an experiment is repeated time and time again and the conclusions are exactly the same, then the conclusion is elevated to a theory. Scientists define theory as a proven conclusion, something over which there is very little doubt. Notice that the way scientists use the word theory is much different from our everyday use. In our everyday usage, theory is equivalent to a scientist’s hypothesis—an estimation or guess. Sherlock Holmes’ theory of the murder was Colonel Mustard with the candlestick.
