Snow flakes
Snowflake.
A snowflake is a crystalline substance. Each snowflake is formed from ice crystals that have a hexagonal (six-sided) structure due to the unique arrangement of water molecules as they freeze.
Amethyst is a form of quartz. Quartz belongs to the trigonal crystal system. The ideal crystal shape is a six-sided prism terminating with six-sided pyramids at each end.
Quartz is a mineral that commonly forms six-sided crystals due to its hexagonal crystal structure. The most well-known form of quartz with this characteristic is the clear variety known as rock crystal.

A snowflake is a crystalline substance. Each snowflake is formed from ice crystals that have a hexagonal (six-sided) structure due to the unique arrangement of water molecules as they freeze.
A 6-sided ice crystal is typically referred to as a hexagonal ice crystal. It forms when water molecules freeze together in a hexagonal pattern due to the molecular structure of water. These crystals are commonly seen in snowflakes.
No, quartz crystals are not cubic. They are hexagonal prisms with a six sided pyramid on the top.
Amethyst is a form of quartz. Quartz belongs to the trigonal crystal system. The ideal crystal shape is a six-sided prism terminating with six-sided pyramids at each end.
Cystine crystals resemble hexagonal crystals, similar to those of quartz or snowflakes. They usually appear as colorless, six-sided prisms or tablets under a microscope.
