What is cleavage of Galena?
Cleavage of galena is the tendency of the mineral to break along planes of weakness, resulting in smooth, flat surfaces. Galena exhibits perfect cleavage in three directions at right angles to each other, producing cubic or octahedral shapes. This property is a result of the crystal structure of galena.
Does hematite have fracture or cleavage?
Hematite has a characteristic fracture, meaning it breaks irregularly with rough or jagged edges and no smooth cleavage planes.
Does rutile have cleavage or fracture?
yes rutile has cleavage-distinct (100) yes rutile has fracture
Does azurite have cleavage or fracture?
Azurite does not have cleavage, but it exhibits a conchoidal fracture, meaning it breaks into smooth, curved surfaces similar to glass.
Does kaolinite have fracture or cleavage?
No, it has no preferred fracture or cleavage.
What is galena's fracture?
Galena's fracture is subconchoidal, and its cleavage is cubic. See http://www.minerals.net/mineral/sulfides/galena/galena.htm for a complete chart about galena's properties.

Is shale fracture or cleavage?
the cleavage is Poor
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.
