Echinoderm calcite: single crystal or polycrystalline aggregate.

K M Towe.   

Abstract

Electron microscopy of natural and broken surfaces of echinoid skeletal plates reveals that the interior portions have the morphology of a single crystal, whereas the exterior is a polycrystalline aggregate with preferred orientation. These data help to resolve earlier contradictory x-ray and optical evidence.
