Hi, perhaps you can offer some insights at Talk:Gemstone#Number of stones, a question asked long ago and had but one response. Or you can directly incorporate the info into the article and just say "See article". Which is a better way, I think. Be bold! --Menchi (Talk)â 13:04, 8 Dec 2003 (UTC)

Did some reading, and stumbled upon crystal_habit. What struck me was that there are at least two notable terms missing, namely massive and nodular. Whilst I threw in nodular, I don't know enough to add massive. And, more pointedly, I'm sure that there are others I'm missing (My knowledge of minerology starts with a catalogue, and ends with paying for it). So, I thought I'd point it out to you, see if there was anything else you spotted.
Also, I can recall reading something on here describing a mineral as "massive", although blowed if I can find it. Struck me that the word massive probably aught to link to crystal_habit, else it's meaning might not get across properly to the average reader. Syntax 05:27, 21 Jan 2004 (UTC)
