Mineralogy: Lecture 47, Quartz

[@zanescents3986]

I’m in minerology now and I find this increbibly helpful!

[@kennethbefus]

That is great. Thanks.

Do you have any videos that describe how massive non terminal alpha quartz forms? I'm interested in this specifically but im finding a lot about macro crystal formation (because thats what people find special about alpha quartz, understandably).

[@kennethbefus]

No free space to grow euhedral terminations. Or growth fully fills space.

Thanks for the vedio, very instructive. Those pictures are fabulous, would you please instruct where to find them?

[@kennethbefus]

Mostly mined from google searches, wikipedia, or GIA educational documents.
