A matrix of fine crystals surrounding phenocrysts?
Groundmass
What does the presence of tiny crystals in a piece of igneous rock tell you about it?
Tiny crystals in the igneous rock tells you it cooled quickley.
A method to modify precipitation by dropping tiny crystals into clouds are?
Cloud seeding is a method to modify precipitation by dropping tiny crystals into clouds.
What are air masses of tiny water droplets or ice crystals?
Clouds are air masses filled with tiny water droplets or ice crystals.
How do you get a herkimer diamond out of its matrix?
The lustrous, transparent, doubly-terminated quartz crystals from mines around Herkimer, New York, called Herkimer diamonds, present a dilemma for collectors. They are quite brittle, and found in very tough silicified dolostone. Crystals in matrix are more interesting and more valuable than crystals without matrix, so you generally don't really want to remove them. Trimming is best done with a diamond saw, or a pressure trimmer. If you really want to just pop the crystals off, a hammer and chisel will do that just fine.
What cartilage cells are located within many tiny spaces throughout the matrix?
matrix
Do sedimentary rocks have tiny crystals?
yes
What are the large crystals called in an igneous rock mostly composed of a finer grained matrix?
The larger crystals or masses of larger crystals are called phenocrysts.
How do you remove a herkimer diamond?
The beautiful clear colorless doubly terminated quartz crystals called "Herkimer Diamonds" found near Herkimer, NY, can very quickly be removed from their hard rock matrix with a hammer and chisel. A diamond bladed saw would ensure a greater likelihood of success; even little diamond blades on a Dremel or Foredom tool will do. (Protect your lungs and eyes!) Bear in mind that nice crystals in matrix are more interesting, and more valued by collectors than crystals that have been broken off the matrix.
What is the name of a fine grained rock embedded with crystals gems or fossils?
Matrix
