Course Description
Definitions of crystal, mineral, mineraloid, crystallography, mineralogy, references and literature for mineralogy- crystallography. Internal order; one-, two- and three-dimensional order, lattices, space groups, structure types, structure defects, twinning. External form; crystallization, crystal growth, symmetry, symmetry operations without translation. Symmetry applications. Crystallographic axes, Miller indices, crystal forms, zones, habitus. Crystal projection, crystal classes: Isometric, tetragonal, orthorhombic, monoclinic, triclinic, hexagonal and rhombohedral systems. Projection applications. Crystal chemistry, physical properties of minerals, x-ray crystallography. X-ray diffraction applications.
