About Chromio-pargasiteHide

Formula:
{Na}{Ca2}{Mg4Cr3+}(Al2Si6O22)(OH)2
Chromio-Pargasite is defined as a pargasite group member with the following dominant elements:
A position: Na
C position: Mg as the dominant divalent cation and Cr as the dominant trivalent cation.
W position: (OH) as the dominant anion
Colour:
Emerald green to pale green
Lustre:
Vitreous
Hardness:
6
Specific Gravity:
3.08
Crystal System:
Monoclinic
Name:
Originally named after the locality where it was found in the Ehime Prefecture, Japan.
This mineral was originally named Ehimeite in the original description and the 2011 IMA approval of the species. It has been renamed Chromio-pargasite in the 2012 amphibole nomenclature in order to create a consistant naming convention for the pargasite group minerals.
