Crystal Axes, Systems, Mineral Face Notation (Miller Indices) A CRYSTAL is the outward form of the internal structure of the mineral. The 6 basic crystal systems are: ISOMETRIC HEXAGONAL TETRAGONAL ORTHORHOMBIC MONOCLINIC TRICLINIC Drusy Quartz on Barite Acknowledgement: the following images from Susan and Stan Celestian, Glendale Community College USC Mineralogy Geol 315 (Anderson)

Crystallography Crystallography: the study of these solid bodies and laws that govern their, external shape, and internal atomic structures using x-ray and x-ray diffraction. Crystals: A homogeneous solid body possessing long-range three dimensional internal order bounded by natural plane faces that are external expression of a regular internal arrangement of constituent atoms, molecules or ions. long-range three dimensional internal order bounded by natural plane faces that are external expression of a regular internal arrangement of constituent atoms, molecules or ions.

Crystals and degree of crystallinity Euhedral : A crystalline solid with well-formed faces Subhedral : If it has imperfectly developed faces. Anhedral : If it is with-out faces Avery fine crystals can be determined only with aid of microscope designated as Microcrystalline. Crystalline aggregated so finely divided that the crystals cannot be resolved with the microscope yet pattern give a diffraction pattern with x-ray are cryptocrystalline. A few solids lack any ordered internal structure These said to be Amorphous.

crystal parts are divided in to two groups: first Real Parts. 1- Crystal Faces : The Plane surface that are the more obvious feature of crystals are parallel to net planes in crystal-structure, faces are two kinds, like and unlike. Crystals with like faces termed a simple form. A Crystals which are consist of two or more simple forms is called a combination. 2- Edge: Line is formed by intersection of any two adjacent faces. 3- Solid Angle :Angle is formed by intersection of Three or more faces. 4- Interfacial Angle : The angle between two faces of crystal as in fig.

Crystal Real Parts

Second Imaginary Parts 1- Crystallographic axes: Imaginary lines passing through the crystal parallel to intersection of major crystal faces. All the crystals, are referred to three crystallographic axes designated as a, b and c, except of those belonging to hexagonal system is referred to four crystallographic axes. Crystals with three crystallographic axes: The (a) axis is horizontal and in a front-back position. The (b) axis is horizontal and right left position. The (c) axis is vertical. The ends of each axis are +or - The front end of(a) the right-hand end of (b) ; the right-hand end of (b) ; the upper end of (c) are positive; upper end of (c) are positive; the opposite ends are negative

2-Interaxial angles: they are three angles( α, β & γ) at the center of crystals in between crystallographic axes. (α) Is between the axes (b & c) (β )between the axes (a &c ) (γ) Is between the axes (a & b)

Crystals with four crystallographic axes Hexagonal System referred to four crystallographic axes, three equal horizontal axis (a1,a2,a3) intersect at angles of 120°, the fourth is (c) of different length and perpendicular to plane of the other three. a² axis is horizontal and right left position (position of b). a² axis is horizontal and right left position (position of b). a1+ axis is 120°in horizontal clock wise direction from a² + a1+ axis is 120°in horizontal clock wise direction from a² + a³+ axis position 120 in horizontal a³+ axis position 120 in horizontal clock wise direction from a1+. clock wise direction from a1+. α the angle is between c & a2+ β the angle is between a1+ & c+ γ the angle is between a²+ & a1+

Crystal Systems

CRYSTAL SYSTEMS are divided into 6 main groups The first group is the ISOMETRIC This literally means “equal measure” and refers to the equal size of the crystal axes. ISOMETRIC - Fluorite Crystals

Crystal Systems ISOMETRIC CRYSTALS Crystal Systems ISOMETRIC CRYSTALS ISOMETRIC In this crystal system there are 3 axes. Each has the same length (as indicated by the same letter “a”). They all meet at mutual 90 o angles in the center of the crystal. Crystals in this system are typically blocky or ball-like. ALL ISOMETRIC CRYSTALS HAVE 4 3-FOLD AXES ISOMETRIC Basic Cube a3 a2 a1

Crystal Symmetry Crystal Symmetry : Is regularity of arrangement of similar faces and angles, and by preforming certain operations on them the like faces and angles can be brought into coincidence There four types of Symmetry :- 1-Symmetry Plane :Is an imaginary plane that divides a crystal in two halves. each of which, in a perfectly developed crystal, is the mirror image of the other.

2-Symmetry Axis of Rotation : Is an imaginary line through the crystal about which the crystal may rotated and repeat itself in appearance two or more times during a complete rotation. 3-symmetry center : If a crystal have center of symmetry, imaginary line can be pass from any point on its surface through its center and similar point at an equal distance is found beyond the center. 4-Symmetry Axis of Inversion : This composite symmetry element combines a rotation about the axis with inversion through center.
