The correct response is: The mineral is reflective.

When light bounces off a surface, it indicates that the mineral is reflecting light, which is a characteristic of reflective materials. Translucent and transparent minerals allow light to pass through, while refractive refers to the bending of light as it enters a different medium, but does not specifically indicate that light is bouncing off the surface.
