Please note that I'm asking about interlocking OF crystals not "interlocking crystals "
What is the meaning of the term "Interlocking of crystals "?
Click For Summary
SUMMARY
The term "interlocking of crystals" refers to the process by which individual crystals grow in a manner that they fit together tightly, often seen in mineral formations. This phenomenon is significant in geology and materials science, as it affects the physical properties of the resulting aggregate. The discussion highlights the importance of understanding the conditions under which interlocking occurs, such as temperature, pressure, and the chemical environment during crystallization.
