This page is currently not sponsored. Click here to sponsor this page.
Formula:
◻Ca2(Mg4Fe3+)[(Si7Al)O22](OH)2
Defined as a an amphibole in the magnesiohornblende group of the Calcium subgroup with Mg>Fe2+ and Fe3+>Al in the C position and with (OH) as the dominant anion in the W position
Colour:
dark green to green black
Lustre:
Vitreous
Hardness:
5
Specific Gravity:
3.275
Crystal System:
Monoclinic
Name:
Follows the rule for named amphiboles
The new mineral occurs most commonly in the porphyry-skarn Fe-Cu-Mo-Au- and hydrothermal Au-mineralized granitoids with high oxygen fugacity but is rare or absent in barren intrusions.

Optical Data of Magnesio-ferri-hornblendeHide

Type:
Biaxial (-)
RI values:
nα = 1.651(2) nβ = 1.658(2) nγ = 1.662(2)
2V:
Measured: 73° to 82°, Calculated: 73.9°
Max. Birefringence:
δ = 0.011
Based on recorded range of RI values above.

Interference Colours:
The colours simulate birefringence patterns seen in thin section under crossed polars. They do not take into account mineral colouration or opacity.

Michel-Levy Bar The default colours simulate the birefringence range for a 30 ”m thin-section thickness. Adjust the slider to simulate a different thickness.

Grain Simulation You can rotate the grain simulation to show how this range might look as you rotated a sample under crossed polars. Each grain retains its interference colour (retardation) while its brightness falls to black at extinction and reaches a maximum between extinction positions.

Surface Relief:
Moderate
Dispersion:
medium to strong
Pleochroism:
Strong
Comments:
X = pale yellow, Y = yellowish brown, and Z = dark yellowish green
