Fracture is usually described with the terms “fibrous” and “splintery” to denote a fracture that usually leaves elongated and sharp edges. Fracture observed in Copper is Hackly. Bowenite fracture is Uneven and Irregular.

Since luster varies between two crystals of even the same gemstone, luster is limited to basic identification criteria. Bowenite, on other hand, exhibits Waxy, Silky, Resinous and Greasy luster.
