In a Triclinic Crystal?

In the triclinic system, the crystal is described by vectors of unequal length, as in the orthorhombic system. In addition, the angles between these vectors must all be different and may not include 90°. The triclinic lattice is the least symmetric of the 14 three-dimensional Bravais lattices.

What is the form of a triclinic crystal?

Also known as the rhombohedron system, its shape is three dimensional like a cube, but it has been skewed or inclined to one side making it oblique. All crystal faces are parallel to each other. A rhombohedral crystal has six faces, 12 edges, and 8 vertices.

Which mineral has triclinic crystal shape?

Minerals that form in the triclinic system include amblygonite, axinite, kyanite, microcline feldspar (including amazonite and aventurine), plagioclase feldspars (including labradorite), rhodonite, and turquoise. Gems that form in the triclinic system form in one of these three basic shapes.
