About Winchite Root Name GroupHide

Formula:

◻{CaNa}{Z²⁺₄Z³⁺}(Si₈O₂₂)(OH,F,Cl)₂

The winchite minerals are defined as sodium-calcium amphiboles with A(Na+K+ 2Ca)<0,5 apfu and with Z(Al+Fe³⁺+2Ti)<1,5 apfu.

The various species are defined on their dominant elements in the Z (= IMA C position) and W position in the formula
Z²⁺ position (= IMA C²⁺ position): Mg or Fe dominant
Z³⁺ position (= IMA C³⁺ position: Al or Fe dominant
W position: (OH) or F dominant.

On mindat.org we avoid using variables with the same symbol as elements and deviate from the IMA nomenclaure in that we use X rather than B, Z rather than C and (OH,F,Cl,O) rather than W.

Crystal System:

Monoclinic

Member of:

Sodium-Calcium Amphibole Subgroup > w(OH, F, Cl)-dominant Amphibole Group > Amphibole Supergroup
