Best Answer

Although minerals may have habits which include varying dimensions of height versus width, thickness is not a term normally associated with mineral characteristics. The usual characteristics used in mineral identification are luster, hardness, crystal system, streak color, specific gravity, and other properties which may depend on laboratory testing.
