About Ferro-katophoriteHide

Formula:
{Na}{CaNa}{Fe2+4Al}[(AlSi7)O22](OH)2
The katophorite group minerals are sodium-calcium amphiboles defined with A(Na+K+2Ca) > 0.5 apfu and 0.5 apfu < C(Al+Fe3++2Ti) < 1.5 apfu.

Ferro-katophorite is defined with

A position: Na dominant
C2+ position: Fe dominant
C3+ position: Al dominant
W position: (OH) dominant
Lustre:
Vitreous
Crystal System:
Monoclinic
Name:
From the Greek for "carrying down," in allusion to its volcanic origin

This mineral was defined as katophorite in the 1978 and 1997 amphibole nomenclatures. The katophorite group minerals was redefined in the 2012 amphibole nomenclature and the Fe2+ and Al dominant katophorite group mineral is now named ferro-katophorite.
This page provides mineralogical data about Ferro-katophorite.

Locality ListHide

- This locality has map coordinates listed. - This locality has estimated coordinates. ⓘ - Click for references and further information on this occurrence. ? - Indicates mineral may be doubtful at this locality. - Good crystals or important locality for species. - World class for species or very significant. (TL) - Type Locality for a valid mineral species. (FRL) - First Recorded Locality for everything else (eg varieties). Struck out - Mineral was erroneously reported from this locality. Faded * - Never found at this locality but inferred to have existed at some point in the past (e.g. from pseudomorphs).

All localities listed without proper references should be considered as questionable.
