Cubo-ice
Cubo-ice is a mineral with a cubic crystal system, characterized by its unique crystalline structure. Its chemical composition is based on water molecules arranged in a cubic lattice, distinguishing it from typical ice, which has a hexagonal structure. Cubo-ice exhibits a hardness lower than that of most minerals, a low density, and a vitreous to waxy luster. It appears colorless or white in color. This mineral is classified as an ice polymorph and is of interest in mineralogy due to its rare and unusual structural properties.
