Graphite specimen, macrophotograph C016 / 7198
Graphite. Macrophotograph of a specimen of graphite, a form of carbon that occurs naturally close to the Earths surface. It is formed by stacked graphene sheets. Graphite is a soft, steel-gray to black, hexagonally crystallized allotrope of carbon with a metallic luster and a greasy feel, used in lead pencils, lubricants, paints, and coatings, that is fabricated into a variety of forms such as molds, bricks, electrodes, crucibles, and rocket nozzles. Also called black lead, plumbago.This specimen is from Sri Lanka and shows a detail of 13mm across

EDITORS COMMENTS
This macrophotograph showcases a graphite specimen in all its intricate glory. Graphite, a naturally occurring form of carbon found near the Earth's surface, is depicted here with remarkable detail. Composed of stacked graphene sheets, this soft and metallic-looking allotrope of carbon boasts a hexagonal crystalline structure. Used widely in various industries, graphite finds its applications as lead pencils, lubricants, paints, coatings, molds, bricks, electrodes, crucibles, and even rocket nozzles. Its versatility knows no bounds. Also known as black lead or plumbago due to its greasy texture and steel-gray to black coloration. Originating from Sri Lanka and measuring 13mm across in this close-up view captured by PASIEKA/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY; this photograph offers an intriguing glimpse into the world of organic geology and chemistry. The image beautifully highlights the net-like pattern formed by nano-sized graphene sheets within the mineral structure. Graphite's significance extends beyond traditional uses; it has also become a cornerstone for nanotechnology research due to its unique properties. This print serves as a testament to both nature's wonders and humanity's ongoing exploration into harnessing materials at the atomic level.
