Strontiochevkinite

A valid IMA mineral species
This page is currently not sponsored. Click here to sponsor this page.
Formula:
(Sr,La,Ce,Ca)4Fe2+(Ti,Zr)2Ti2(Si2O7)2O8
Colour:
Flesh-pink
Lustre:
Sub-Metallic
Hardness:
5 - 6
Specific Gravity:
5.44 (Calculated)
Crystal System:
Monoclinic
Name:
Named in 1983 by Stephen E. Haggerty and Anthony N. Mariano in honor of Konstantin Vladimirovich Chevkin and for the Sr dominance in the composition..
Chevkinite Group.

The status of this species is disputed; it "... might be an Fe-rich variety of rengeite" (Miyawaki et al., 2002).
