The mineral quartz show the property of fracture. it breaks along a curved surface. this kind of fracture is called conchoidal fracture. In math the quartz is x3.
It has fracture because it brakes into ckunks not slivers.
Fracture is the tendency of a mineral to break along curved surfaces without a definite shape. These minerals do not have planes of weakness and break irregularly.

Fluorite has uneven fracture.
No, quartz doesn't have distinctive cleavage, it will tend to break with a conchoidal fracture.

No. In minerology, cleavage is a feature, not a physical thing. Regardless, quartz does not possess the feature known as cleavage, meaning that it has no parallel broken surfaces. Rather, the feature that quartz can possess is called "fracture."
Quartz does not have cleavage. However, it does have fracture. Its fracture is conchoidal.
There is no broken parts in quartz, so Quartz does not have cleavage.
When quartz is broken it has a conchoidal fracture. Fracture is the appearance of the broken plane of a mineral. A conchodal fracture is described a being curved, and looking like broken glass.

Chrysotile serpentine is a typical mineral with splintery fracture and kyanite is an example of a non-fibrous mineral that has this fracture.
