About ChamositeHide

Formula:

(Fe²⁺)₅Al(Si,Al)₄O₁₀(OH,O)₈

Colour:

Green, grey-green, brown-green, dark green, black

Lustre:

Pearly

Hardness:

Specific Gravity:

3.0 - 3.4

Crystal System:

Monoclinic

Member of:

Chlorite Group

Name:

Named in 1820 by Pierre Berthier for the type locality Haut de Cry, near Chamoson, Valais, Switzerland

Type Locality:

ⓘ Haut de Cry, Chamoson, Conthey, Valais, Switzerland

The iron(II) analogue of clinochlore, with which it forms a solid-solution series (chamosite-clinochlore series).
A fairly common member of the chlorite group, but less common than clinochlore.

Easily confused with berthierine.
Note: Berthierine is difficult to recognise by normal XRD methods because the critical identifying feature, the absence of a 14 A basal reflection, is
commonly masked by a peak due to admixed chlorite (Brindley, 1982; Slack et al., 1992).
