Quartz
Clear crystal quartz forms naturally when silica rich solutions occur in underground cavities and fractures where conditions will allow unobstructed growth. The smooth planar surfaces reflect the symmetry of the crystal lattice, but do not represent cleavage planes. When the hexagonal symmetry is exhibited by the crystals, it represents the pattern formed by unobstructed growth.
