An euhedral crystal (the biggest one in the photo) in groundmass matter
by Metwally Hamza, Full Geologist, Egypt
- The term euhedral in geology means that the crystal has well-growth sides, such as that appears in this photo as an equent grain. And the term groundmass refers to the very fine-grained material that exists in the whole section.
