Mica
The mica group of sheet silicate (phyllosilicate) minerals includes several closely related materials having nearly perfect basal cleavage. All are monoclinic, with a tendency towards pseudohexagonal crystals, and are similar in chemical composition. The nearly perfect cleavage, which is the most prominent characteristic of mica, is explained by the hexagonal sheet-like arrangement of its atoms.  The word mica is derived from the Latin word mica, meaning a crumb, and probably influenced by micare, to glitter.  From: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mica.
