= Equidimensional (geology)
{wiki=Equidimensional_(geology)}
In geology, "equidimensional" refers to a term used to describe mineral grains or crystals that have approximately equal dimensions in all directions, resulting in a roughly isotropic shape. This means that the length, width, and height of the crystal or grain are similar, giving it a uniform appearance regardless of the orientation in which it is viewed. Equidimensional grains are typically found in certain types of igneous and metamorphic rocks.
