Microscope photos of monoclinic crystals (left), along with the pseudo-hexagonal carnallite crystallites formed over time (middle). Eventually, monoclinic KCl·MgCl₂·6H₂O dissolves completely and the well-known pseudo-hexagonal forms remain (right). Crystallite edge lengths are on average between 0.1 and 0.5 mm.
