The place where the mineral was first found and described — by convention, the reference point for the species.

One of seven geometric families that describe a mineral's atomic symmetry: isometric (cubic), tetragonal, hexagonal, trigonal, orthorhombic, monoclinic, triclinic. Two non-crystalline classes — amorphous and icosahedral — also appear.

The full symmetry description of a crystal's repeating atomic pattern — 230 distinct groups, written in Hermann–Mauguin notation (e.g. P6₃/mmc).

The lengths of the unit-cell edges (a, b, c) in ångströms — the smallest repeating box of atoms that builds the crystal.

The angles (α, β, γ) between unit-cell edges, in degrees. Cubic crystals have 90°/90°/90°; triclinic crystals can take any combination.

Edge-length ratios of the unit cell, normalised so b = 1. Lets you compare related species without quoting absolute ångström values.

Chemical elements that make up the mineral's ideal formula, listed by atomic symbol with their share of the total mass.
