Crystal beads grow bigger when they come into contact with water due to a process called hydration. Water molecules are absorbed by the crystal beads, causing them to swell and increase in size. This interaction between the water molecules and the crystal beads results in the expansion of the beads.
The addition of a crystal to an aqueous solution can act as a seed for the precipitation of solute particles out of the solution through a process known as crystallization. This occurs when the crystal provides a surface onto which the solute particles can adhere and form a solid precipitate, causing them to come out of the solution.

A salt crystal garden is created by dissolving salt in hot water to create a supersaturated solution. When the solution cools, the salt will crystallize on a surface like a sponge or string dipped in the solution, forming a crystal garden. This process is a simple example of crystallization, where dissolved particles come together to form solid crystals as the solvent evaporates.
Crystals come in different shapes, determined by how the molecules of compounds from which they are made can be packed together. For instance a quarts crystal is hexagonal in shape, while galena and pyrites crystals are cubic. There are six different crystal shapes or forms determined by the axes and degree of symmetry of the crystal and the angles at which the axes intersect. Subordinate to the overall crystal shapes, many crystalline substances have within them planes of weakness along which the crystal may break these lines are related to the crystals symmetry and caused by how the molecules are aligned within the crystal. This is cleavage.

The mineral is Beryl.
It is not true.
The word crystal came from the Greek word kryos meaning icy cold.
Never.

i do not know if it even exists
"Crystal Reports Training has two options for training. You can get them to come to your office, or you can order the tapes and papers and do the training yourself."
A type of shrimp that come from the Arctic, it lives near crystal waters... Correct me if I'm wrong.

I found two websites that have a good price for it: "twelvepro" and "twelvecrystals" Check out "arteastgift" too. Much better price and choice
