Bismuth Crystals
in Inorganic Chemistry
Posted
I just stumbled onto this thread perhaps a few years late... Last year I succeded in breaking the 6 inch barrier for a single crystal, and this week have a twin cluster that is 7 and 1/2 inches tall with no attachment points except the base.
I am not sure if there is a world record for Bismuth crystal size but would like to know. I have up to 5 pound single crystals and clusters to 8 pounds.
Besides Gallium, Bismuth is my other obsession.
