Moved/renamed page per more common use. Cryptocrystal is a seldom (ever?) used term in petrology. Cryptocrystal on Google returned only 1340 hits versus 72,500 for cryptocrystalline. Also the first two pages of hits for cryptocrystal were wholly Wiki mirror sites - the page has been around since 2002. Cryptocrystalline texture is the usage in petrology that I know of - and returns 2290 hits on Google books vs none for cryptocrystal. Vsmith 00:23, 3 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Agree.

Also, should link in with microcrystalline, nanocrystalline, ...

This page was redesigned at the edge.

A page that knows where it met you.
