  2. Halite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halite

    In these cases, halite is said to be behaving like a rheid. Unusual, purple, fibrous vein-filling halite is found in France and a few other localities. Halite crystals termed hopper crystals appear to be "skeletons" of the typical cubes, with the edges present and stairstep depressions on, or rather in, each crystal face. In a rapidly ...

  3. Hopper crystal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hopper_crystal

    Hopper crystal. A hopper crystal is a form of crystal, the shape of which resembles that of a pyramidal hopper container. The edges of hopper crystals are fully developed, but the interior spaces are not filled in. This results in what appears to be a hollowed out step lattice formation, as if someone had removed interior sections of the ...

  4. Galena - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galena

    Galena, also called lead glance, is the natural mineral form of lead (II) sulfide (PbS). It is the most important ore of lead and an important source of silver. [5] Galena is one of the most abundant and widely distributed sulfide minerals. It crystallizes in the cubic crystal system often showing octahedral forms.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_chloride

    Sodium chloride / ˌsoʊdiəm ˈklɔːraɪd /, [8] commonly known as edible salt, is an ionic compound with the chemical formula NaCl, representing a 1:1 ratio of sodium and chlorine ions. It is transparent or translucent, brittle, hygroscopic, and occurs as the mineral halite. In its edible form, it is commonly used as a condiment and food ...

  6. Sylvite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sylvite

    Sylvite, or sylvine, is potassium chloride (KCl) in natural mineral form. It forms crystals in the isometric system very similar to normal rock salt, halite (Na Cl). The two are, in fact, isomorphous. [5] Sylvite is colorless to white with shades of yellow and red due to inclusions. It has a Mohs hardness of 2.5 and a specific gravity of 1.99.

  7. Carnallite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnallite

    Carnallite. Carnallite (also carnalite) is an evaporite mineral, a hydrated potassium magnesium chloride with formula KCl.MgCl 2 ·6 (H 2 O). It is variably colored yellow to white, reddish, and sometimes colorless or blue. It is usually massive to fibrous with rare pseudohexagonal orthorhombic crystals.

  8. Hydrohalite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrohalite

    Hydrohalite is a mineral that occurs in saturated halite brines at cold temperatures (below 0.1 °C). It was first described in 1847 in Dürrnberg, Austria. It exists in cold weather. Phase diagram of water–NaCl mixture. Hydrohalite has a high nucleation energy, and solutions will normally need to be supercooled for crystals to form.

  9. Evaporite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporite

    Evaporite. An evaporite (/ ɪˈvæpəˌraɪt /) is a water- soluble sedimentary mineral deposit that results from concentration and crystallization by evaporation from an aqueous solution. [1] There are two types of evaporite deposits: marine, which can also be described as ocean deposits, and non-marine, which are found in standing bodies of ...
