Light micrograph of crystalline graphite, small, flat flakes of naturally graphite out of the Kropfmühl graphite mine in Germany. Graphite is made up of pure carbon. Similar to the structure within diamond, carbon forms the crystal lattice of graphite. However, in contrast to diamond, graphite’s carbon atoms have a six-sided honeycomb lattice structure. Microscopic contrast technique: Incident lighting. Magnification: 40x when printed 10 centimetres wide.
