can be measured using x-ray diffraction, but calorimetric techniques are also commonly used.

Use in geochemistry

In geochemistry, mineral crystallinity plays a pivotal role in regulating water-rock interactions, particularly during the early stages of mineral crystallization. For example, in the case of goethite, dissolved lithium can be taken up by poorly crystallized goethite, whereas little sorption occurs in well-crystallized goethite. Additionally, lithium isotope fractionation
