  1. Point Groups (Crystal Classes)

  2. Stereographic Projections • Used to display crystal morphology. • X for upper hemisphere. • O for lower.

  3. Stereographic Projections • We will use stereographic projections to plot the perpendicular to a general face and its symmetry equivalents (general form hkl). • Illustrated above are the stereographic projections for Triclinic point groups 1 and -1.

  4. 32 PointGroups (Crystal Classes) • Triclinic: 1, 1 • Monoclinic: 2, 2=m, 2/m • Orthorhombic: 222, 2mm, 2/m2/m2/m (=mmm) • Tetragonal: 4, 4, 4/m, 42m, 422 4mm 4/m2/m2/m • Trigonal: 3, 3m, 32, 3, 32/m • Hexagonal: 6, 6, 6/m, 6m2, 622, 6mm, 6/m2/m2/m • Cubic: 23, 2/m3, 432, 43m, 4/m32/m
