The 13 pages that link to Crystal habit, each with the reason it gives.

• CrystallizationRelated: Growth conditions determine which crystal faces dominate the final shape.

• QuartzRelated: Quartz often develops six-sided prisms capped by pyramid-like faces.

• Ice crystalRelated: Ice crystal habit names the plate-like, columnar, or branched forms produced by unequal face growth.

• HaliteRelated: Halite often develops cubic crystals because of its cubic internal symmetry.

• Cubic crystal systemRelated: External cube-like shapes can suggest cubic symmetry but do not establish it.

• CassiteriteRelated: Cassiterite commonly forms prismatic, pyramidal, or rounded crystals that aid identification.

• AnataseRelated: Anatase crystals can be recognized by habits unlike those of other TiO₂ polymorphs.

• René Just HaüyRelated: Haüy sought to derive external habits from the geometry of internal units.

• RutileRelated: Rutile commonly forms prismatic crystals, needles, and slender inclusions.

• KyaniteRelated: Kyanite’s elongated, bladed crystals reflect its growth and internal structure.

• Magnesium fluorideRelated: Natural sellaite crystals provide a visible example of crystalline magnesium fluoride.

• HemimorphiteRelated: Hemimorphite occurs as crystals, crusts, and botryoidal masses.

• StilbiteRelated: Stilbite is commonly recognized by crystals grouped into sheaves or bow ties.
