Mica
The
mica group of sheet
silicate (
phyllosilicate)
minerals includes several closely related materials having nearly perfect
basal cleavage. All are
monoclinic, with a tendency towards pseudohexagonal
crystals, and are similar in chemical composition. The nearly perfect cleavage, which is the most prominent characteristic of mica, is explained by the
hexagonal sheet-like arrangement of its
atoms.
