Why do some minerals break by fracturing?

Minerals can have a cleavage plane, multiple cleavage planes, or no cleavage plane. A cleavage plane is an area of weakness in the crystalline structure where the mineral is prone to splitting.


What Is the tendency of mineral to break into irregular pieces?

This is termed fracture, eg. the conchoidal fracture of obsidian. Breaking into pieces with straight lines and flat faces is called cleavage; minerals like calcite and fluorite exhibit excellent cleavage.


Which minerals split and dont break or crumble?

Minerals that exhibit cleavage split along flat planes and do not break apart or crumble like minerals that fracture. Examples of minerals with good cleavage include mica, calcite, and halite.


Dose sapphire have a cleavage break or a fracture?

Sapphire has a mixture of both cleavage and fracture characteristics. It has poor cleavage in one direction and conchoidal fracture, which means it breaks with smooth, curved surfaces similar to glass.


What is the differences between fracture and cleavage?

Cleavage is the tendency of a mineral to break along flat surfaces and fracture is the tendency of a mineral to break into irregular pieces.


What the differences between cleavage and fracture?

Is opal a cleavage or fracture?

Opal does not have a cleavage or fracture because it lacks a distinct cleavage plane like minerals such as mica or calcite. Instead, opal typically fractures conchoidally, meaning it breaks with smooth, curved surfaces similar to glass.
