What causes minerals to break along smooth flat surfaces?
Cleavage
Tendency to break along smooth flat surfaces?
Many minerals have "cleavage" that causes them to split on flat cleavage planes. Such minerals include micas (muscovite, biotite. phlogopite), calcite, gypsum, and feldspars. Cleavage is the result of the minerals' crystal structure that has weaker chemical bonds aligned in planes.
