    whether the slow or fast component is vibrating in the longest direction of the crystal. If the slow component vibrates in the longest direction of the mineral, the mineral is said to have a positive sign of elongation or is "length-slow". On the other hand, if it has a negative sign of elongation it is called "length-fast".
