Endomorph


Definition:

  • (n.) A crystal of one species inclosed within one of another, as one of rutile inclosed in quartz.

Mineral


Definition:

  • (v. i.) An inorganic species or substance occurring in nature, having a definite chemical composition and usually a distinct crystalline form. Rocks, except certain glassy igneous forms, are either simple minerals or aggregates of minerals.
  • (v. i.) A mine.
  • (v. i.) Anything which is neither animal nor vegetable, as in the most general classification of things into three kingdoms (animal, vegetable, and mineral).
  • (a.) Of or pertaining to minerals; consisting of a mineral or of minerals; as, a mineral substance.
  • (a.) Impregnated with minerals; as, mineral waters.
