What mineral has an isometric crystal shape?
Diamond is one mineral in the isometric crystal system.
Is quarts cubic or hexagonal?
Quartz is a crystalline mineral that typically forms in a hexagonal crystal system. Its most common form, known as alpha quartz, exhibits a six-sided prism shape with a hexagonal cross-section. However, quartz can also exhibit other forms and variations, but its fundamental crystal structure is hexagonal.

A crystal system depends upon the way what lines up?
A crystal system depends upon the way atoms or molecules line up in a three-dimensional space. The arrangement of these building blocks determines the overall shape and symmetry of the crystal lattice, leading to unique properties and characteristics for each system.
