— XRD pattern for the as-received sample is shown in Fig. 2 from which high-intensity peaks for quart can be observed. The other XRD peaks in the material are biotite (K(Mg,Fe) 3 AlSi 3 O10(F,OH) 2) and orthoclase (KAlSi 3 O 8). The intensity peaks for copper-bearing minerals could not be observed as they are below the detection limit of …
Biotite in a very fine-grained andesitic rock in contact with marginal granitic rock. Sample viewed with crossed polarising filters. Locality: High Cantle above Low Bleakhope, Cheviot Hills, Northumberland. This biotite crystal exhibits 'kink banding', a characteristic that can be produced by strong tectonic deformation.

— Like other mica minerals, biotite has a highly perfect basal cleavage, and consists of flexible sheets, or lamellae, which easily flake off. It has a monoclinic crystal system, with tabular to prismatic crystals with an obvious pinacoid termination. The images below show a sample of mica biotite, and a sheet subjected to X-ray diffraction.
