The termination is typically capped by a dome forming a roof like top. Another dome can modify the termination producing a point at the juncture of the two domes.

The pinacoid, multiple domes and occassionally orthorhombic pyramid faces can produce a complex, multifaceted and well formed termination. Topaz can be granular and massive. * Cleavage is perfect in one direction, basal. * Fracture is conchoidal. * Hardness is 8. * Specific Gravity is approximately 3.4 - 3.5+ (above average) * Streak is white. * Associated Minerals include quartz, tourmalines, micas, brookite, cassiterite and fluorite. * Other Characteristics: index of refraction is 1.61 - 1.64. Prism faces maybe striated lengthwise. * Notable Occurrences include Minas Gerias, Brazil; Pakistan; San Diego Co, California; Ural Mountains, Russia; Mexico and the Thomas Range, Utah. * Best Field Indicators are crystal habit, color, density and hardness.
