Is it possible that "[[selenite]]" is a mistranslation? This mineral is very soft, has low tensile strength, and is severely damaged by running water; further, although small crystals are very common, pieces large enough for masonry are rare. All these properties would seem to make it thoroughly unsuitable for building towers. -- [[Special:Contributions/202.63.39.58|202.63.39.58]] ([[User talk:202.63.39.58|talk]]) 06:19, 1 September 2013 (UTC) |

Selenite?
Is it possible that "selenite" is a mistranslation? This mineral is very soft, has low tensile strength, and is severely damaged by running water; further, although small crystals are very common, pieces large enough for masonry are rare. All these properties would seem to make it thoroughly unsuitable for building towers. -- 202.63.39.58 (talk) 06:19, 1 September 2013 (UTC)
