Relating to the measurement of crystals or their properties; involving quantitative analysis of crystal dimensions, angles, or other measurable characteristics.
From crystal combined with -metric (from Greek metron meaning 'measure'). This term became important in the 19th century when scientists began precisely measuring crystal angles and dimensions to classify minerals and understand their properties.
A crystallometric measurement of a diamond's internal structure can tell you where it came from, how old it is, and whether it's truly natural or synthetic—atoms arranged in geometric perfection leave a fingerprint that math can read.
