Minerals form hexagonal shapes due to their atomic lattice structure, which arranges atoms in repeating patterns that maximize stability. Quartz is a common example of a mineral that crystallizes in a hexagonal pattern. Fun fact: This hexagonal structure also makes these minerals strong and durable, explaining why hexagonal crystals are often found in hard rocks.
