The feldspars are a group of minerals that have similar characteristics due to a similar structure. All feldspars have low symmetry, being only monoclinic, 2m, to triclinic, bar 1. They tend to twin easily and one crystal can even be multiply twinned on the same plane, producing parallel layers of twinned crystals. They are slightly hard at around 6, and have an average density at 2.55 to 2.76. They have a rather dull to rarely vitreous luster. Crystals tend to be blocky. Some feldspars may be triboluminescent. They have two directions of cleavage at nearly right angles. Feldspars also tend to crystallize in igneous enviroments, but are also present in many metamorphic rocks. The general formula, for the common feldspars, is xal(1-2) si(3-2) o8 . The x in the formula can be sodium, na andor potassium, k andor calcium, ca. When the cation in the x position has a positive one (+1) charge such as with sodium or potassium, then the formula contains one aluminum and three silicons ions. If the formula contains the positive two (+2) cation calcium, then the formula will contain two aluminums and only two silicon ions. This substitution keeps the formula balanced, because aluminum has a charge of positive three (+3) and silicon has a charge of positive four (+4). Basically, the more calcium in the crystal, the more aluminum that will be needed to balance the charge.

We offer Mica. The dictionary defines mica as "A class of silicates having a prismatic angle 120o, eminently perfect basal cleavage, affording thin tough laminae or scales, colorless to jet black, transparent to translucent, of widely varying chemical composition, and crystallising in the monoclinic system". In brief, mica is a generic term applied to a group of a complex aluminosilicate minerals having a sheet or plate like structure with different chemcial compositions and physical properties. All micas from from flat six-sided monoclinical crystals with a remarkable cleavage in the direction of the large surfaces,which permits them to split easily into optically flat films, as thin as one micron in thickness. When split into thin films, they remain tough and elastic even at high temperature. What makes micas so important to command such a unique position ? Because it had been gifted with exceptional values. It possesses some of the most outstanding combination of chemcial, physical, electrical, thermal and mechanical properties which are not found in any other product.
