What is the fracture of the turquoise mineral?
The fracture of aquamarine is cleavage.
What can cleavage and fracture do to a mineral?
Cleavage is the tendency to break along flat surfaces, and fracture is the tendency of a mineral to break into irregular pieces.
Is turquoise cleavage or fracture?
Apatite is a mineral that comes is blues, greens, browns, yellows and clear. It has a weak cleavage and a choncoidal fracture.
Does pyroxene mineral have cleavage or fracture?
Yes.
What is the difference between mineral cleavage and mineral fracture.?
Cleavage is the breaking of a mineral along flat surfaces. Fracture, on the hand is just the chipping or "fracture" of a mineral.Cleavage is the tendency to break along flat surfaces, and fracture is the tendency of a mineral to break into irregular pieces.

How a mineral breaks apart when it does not split evenly?
The two way by which minerals break are called cleavage and fracture. Cleavage is when a mineral breaks along a plane whose atomic bonds are weaker than in the rest of the mineral. Fracture is when a mineral is forced to be broken in an unnatural direction.
Is Silicon Fracture or Cleavage?
its fracture because fracture is when a mineral l breaks , it is all uneven . when it is cleavage , its flat broken pieces so this is definitely fracture

What are two ways a mineral can break?
fracture or cleavage
How are cleavage and fracture similar?
Cleavage is the tendency of a mineral to break along flat planar surfaces as determined by the structure of its crystal lattice. Fracture is the way a mineral breaks other than along a cleavage plane. They both describe a way a mineral can break.
