Minerals represent an astonishingly diverse range of crystal structures that belies their often simple chemical composition - the simplicity and elegance of the diamond structure may not be entirely surprising, but the long-range corrugations in antigorite, for example, could hardly be predicted from its simple Mg3Si2O5(OH)4 formula. Many of these structures result in stunning models, particularly when made with many unit cells into large models.
