Crystallography of EnstatiteHide

Crystal System:
Orthorhombic
Class (H-M):
mmm (2/m 2/m 2/m) - Dipyramidal
Space Group:
Pbca
Cell Parameters:
a = 18.23 Å, b = 8.84 Å, c = 5.19 Å
Ratio:
a:b:c = 2.062 : 1 : 0.587
Unit Cell V:
836.39 Γ…Β³ (Calculated from Unit Cell)
Z:
8
Morphology:
Prismatic crystals, common forms include {100}, {010}, {100}, {210}, {101}, {111}, {211}; frequently striated // [001]
Twinning:
The often reported "Simple and lamellar twinning on {100}" is no twinning (the symmetry plane is part of the crystal structure). Twinning may be confused with exsolution lamellae.

Varieties of EnstatiteHide

BronziteAn iron(II)-bearing variety of enstatite.
The iron-dominant member is ferrosilite.
See also the obsolete hypersthene, a mid-way member between enstatite and ferrosilite.
Lime-BronziteA Calcian Bronzite
VanadinbronziteA vanadium-bearing variety of enstatite.
Originally reported from Bracco, Genova Province, Liguria, Italy.
