Crystals

Record 151 to 175 of 215

Clipart illustrations of crystals of numerous minerals. These crystalline minerals are created through natural processes, and so often times there are numerous crystal shapes for any given mineral (polycrystalline materials).


Orthoclase Crystal
"Simple orthoclase crystal opened out to show the optical orientation." -Johannsen, 1908...
Orthoclase Twin
"A Carlsbad twin of orthoclase." -Johannsen, 1908...
Orthoclase Twin
"A Baveno twin of orthoclase." -Johannsen, 1908...
Plane, symmetry
"A crystal has a center of symmetry if an imaginary line is passed from some point on its surface through its center, and a similar point is found on the line at an equal distance beyond the center." ...
Primitive Crystal
"In this the four lateral planes are rectangular and equal; they may be either oblong or square; in the latter case the form is the cube." —The Encyclopedia Britannica, 1903...
Primitive Crystal
"If the base is a square and the prism stands erect—that is, if its sides or lateral planes, as they are called, are perpendicular to the base—the form is termed a right square prism." &md...
Primitive Crystal
"When the base is a rectangle instead of a square, the form is a right rectangular prism." —The Encyclopedia Britannica, 1903...
Primitive Crystal
"When the base is a rhombus, and the prism stands erect, the form is a right rhombic prism." —The Encyclopedia Britannica, 1903...
Primitive Crystal
"When the base is a rhomboid, and the prism stands erect, it is only the opposite laeral faces that can be equal. The form is called a right rhomboidal prism." —The Encyclopedia Britannica, 190...
Prism, orthohombie
"Crystal faces are described according to their relations to the crystallographic axes. A series of numbers which indicate the relative distances by which a face intersects the different axes are cal...
Pyramid, orthorhombie
"Crystal faces are described according to their relations to the crystallographic axes. A series of numbers which indicate the relative distances by which a face intersects the different axes are cal...
Pyritohedral class, symmetry of
"The symmetry of the Pyritohedral class is as follows: The three crystal axes of binary symmetry; the four diagonal axes, each of which emerges in the middle of the octant, are axes of trigonal symmet...

Quartz
"Terminated usually by a combination of a positive and negative rhombohedron, which often are so equally developed as to give the effect of a hexagonal pyramid." — Ford, 1912...

Quartz
This illustration shows Quartz or Silica. Quarts is the most abundant mineral in the Earth's continental crust....
Quartz, left-handed
"The quartz crystals are said to be right or left handed, depending upon whether these faces are to be observed trunctuating the edges between prism and rhombohedron." — Ford, 1912...

Rhodonite

Rhodonite
"Triclinic. Crystals commonly tabular parallel to base." — Ford, 1912...
Rhombic Dodecahedron
The rhombic dodecahedron is a convex polyhedron with 12 rhombic faces. It is an Archimedean dual solid, or a Catalan solid. Its dual is the cuboctahedron....
Rhombohedral Class, symmetry of
"The vertical crystallographic axis is one of trigonal symmetry, and the three horizontal crystallographic axes of binary symmetry." — Ford, 1912...
