Cleavage is the mineral property that could be illustrated by peeling muscovite mica into thin sheets.
What is Muscovite?
Muscovite (also known as common mica, isinglass, or potash mica) is a hydrated aluminium and potassium phyllosilicate mineral having the formula KAl2(AlSi3O10)(F,OH)2, or (KF)2(Al2O3)3(SiO2)6 (H2O). It has an almost complete basal cleavage, resulting in incredibly thin laminae (sheets) that are frequently highly elastic. Muscovite sheets measuring 5 metres 3 metres (16.5 feet 10 feet) have been discovered in Nellore, India. It can be transparent or translucent, and can be colourless or tinged with greys, browns, greens, yellows, or (occasionally) violet or red.
