The "dollar" in the picture is technically marcasite. The difference is due to the differing crystal structure. Just FYI --DanielCD 21:30, 11 Nov 2004 (UTC)

I do not see any references by the end of this topic so I place. Tranletuhan (talk) 04:12, 12 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Asbestiform

edit

Asbestiform page links to the Crystal habit, yet isn't listed in the table. Would that mean the list is incomplete? Or does "asbestiform" actually not merit a mention for some reason? 94.124.194.106 (talk) 08:15, 29 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for reporting this. Asbestiform habit is a type of fibrous habit. Therefore, I have changed the entry in the table of habits in this crystal habit article from "Fibrous" to "Fibrous (including asbestiform)". GeoWriter (talk) 14:27, 29 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Reniform = botryoidal?

edit

The article Botryoidal gives "reniform" as a synonym, while the table here lists the two as separate habits. Which one is correct? Or are both meanings used? – Uanfala (talk) 16:48, 15 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for reporting this. Botryoidal and reniform are not synonyms in the context of mineral habits (although examples occur where these habits merge into each other). The table in this Crystal habit article is correct. Therefore, I have changed the Botryoidal article. GeoWriter (talk) 20:06, 15 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
