Class <<Type>> InorganicFluid (extends EarthMaterial )

An inorganic, non-crystalline EarthMaterial (solid, liquid, or gas) that tends to flow or conform to the shape of its container. Includes glass. By convention liquid mercury is considered a mineral (examples: water, brine, glass)

This class is an empty placeholder for extension at a later date, or by other domain models.
