Mica is made up of sheets of silicate
The cleavage of mica is perfect. Sometimes it has parallel parting. The cleavage laminae is flexible and elastic. The thin translucent sheets allow geologists to view the metamorphosis.
. The commercially important micas are muscovite and phlogopite, which are used in a variety of applications. Mica's value is based on several of its unique physical properties. The crystalline structure of mica forms layers that can be split or delaminated into thin sheets usually causing foliation in rocks. These sheets are chemically inert, dielectric, elastic, flexible, hydrophilic, insulating, lightweight, platy, reflective, refractive, resilient, and range in opacity from transparent to opaque
Muscovite generally displays a micaceous crystal habit, of thin flexible sheets.
the setting of Stargirl is in Mica (Mica Area High School), a made-up town in Arizona. Great part of the story happens there.
No
Mica is made up of sheets of silicate
Generally in books of thin sheets.
mica
Muscovite mica has perfect cleavage in one direction. It splits into thin sheets.
the metamorphic rock that is easily split is...A Mica, A Pumice and A Sulfur
cleavage
yes because it splits to thin elastic sheets
Yes, it has 1 plane of fracture and breaks into thin sheets
Muscovite mica has perfect cleavage in one direction. It splits into thin sheets.
The mica group of silicate minerals cleave into thin sheets. O REALLY!!!!!!
This is called cleavage.
