Definition of euhedral in English:

euhedral

adjective juːˈhiːdr(ə)lyo͞oˈhēdrəl

Geology

(of a mineral crystal in a rock) bounded by faces corresponding to its regular crystal form, not constrained by adjacent minerals.
Example sentencesExamples
- The remaining 5-10% of zircon grains are rhombic, prismatic or long-prismatic euhedral crystals, and are always transparent and colourless to pale pink.
- During crystallization of the derivative granite, minor secondary zircon grew around the older cores, resulting in euhedral crystal forms of all the grains.
- The mineral separates provided a population of euhedral, prismatic crystals, which are either transparent and colourless or chocolate brown and translucent to opaque.
- Titanite occurs as up to 2 cm long, dark brown, euhedral crystals in textural equilibrium with the other minerals.
- Some biotite crystals form perfectly euhedral plates, others show a reaction rim rich in opaque granules towards the surrounding microfelsitic base.
