Why do some minerals display the property known as "cleavage"? O Metallic luster causes cleavage. O Geologists polish one side of the mineral so it reflects light in a very shiny way. O Crystal habit (or "shape") is the same thing as cleavage. O The bonds holding together atoms in the crystal lattice are stronger in some directions, and weaker in other directions. O Plate tectonics causes cleavage.
