Les termes texture et structure n'ont pas toujours un sens défini et sont fréquemment employés l'un pour l'autre. L'usage veut cependant que : le terme texture désigne les relations spatiales entre deux ou plusieurs minéraux ou minerais. [...] le terme structure concerne la morphologie d'un cristal ou d'un élément minéral [...] sans tenir compte des relations spatiales entre ce cristal (ou cet élément minéral) et ses voisins. 8, record 1, French, - structure%20br%C3%A9cho%C3%AFde
