Vote for your favorite mineral in #MinCup26! - Sphalerite vs. Anorthite
Both zinc ore Sphalerite and calcium plagioclase feldspar Anorthite have perfect cleavage that will split cleanly if you hit them with a hammer, but only one can claim a larger split of your votes!

1Lusakite occurrence, Rufunsa District, Lusaka Province, Zambia
Frank K. Mazdab collection; sample FKM-75; https://www.rockptx.com/fkm-51-to-fkm-75/#FKM-75 (sample donated by S. Vrána)
blue Co-bearing staurolite in high-grade "ferrolite" (staurolite-kyanite-quartz-magnetite gneiss), with kyanite, quartz, magnetite and scattered pleochroic violet/brown grains of a Co-dominant member of the högbomite family. Additional oxides (hematite+ilmenite; minor rutile) and minor sulfides (linnaeite, cobaltpentlandite) are present, as is sparse sillimanite and retrograde(?) margarite and clinochore. In the absence of independently-determined Fe3+/∑Fe or H2O, all measured Fe is assumed to be Fe2+, then with sufficient calculated H added to achieve charge balance; that the stoichiometry is good and the analytical total is near 100 wt% suggests the FeO* and H2O assumptions are likely reasonable.
2Khizovara kyanite deposit, Khizovaar ore field, Loukhsky District, Republic of Karelia, Russia
Frank K. Mazdab collection; sample FKM-32a; https://www.rockptx.com/fkm-26-to-fkm-50/#FKM-32a
Cr-bearing staurolite in a kyanite-zone amphibolite-facies rock of bulk composition gradational between a metapelite and a metaquartzite , with abundant kyanite and almandine garnet, in a matrix of predominately quartz and some Cr-bearing muscovite ("fuchsite") and "oligoclase" (sodic plagioclase: Ab88), accompanied by minor biotite, oxides, and apatite. In the absence of independently-determined Fe3+/∑Fe or H2O, all measured Fe is assumed to be Fe2+, then with sufficient calculated H added to achieve charge balance; that the stoichiometry is good and the analytical total is near 100 wt% suggests the FeO* and H2O assumptions are likely reasonable.
