About Ferri-obertiiteHide

Roberta Oberti
Formula:
Na(Na2)(Mg3Fe3+Ti)(Si8O22)O2
Ferri-obertiite is a obertiite root name amphibole in the WO2- dominant amphibole group with Mg as the dominant element in the C2+ position and Fe3+ as the dominant element in the C3+ position.
Colour:
Pink-orange
Crystal System:
Monoclinic
Name:
The obertiite root name is for Prof. Roberta Oberti, University of Pavia, Italy, for her contributions to the crystal chemistry of amphiboles.


The obertiite root name mineral published as obertiite (IMA 1998-046) was renamed ferri-obertiite in 2012. Re-investigation of the holotype material in 2014 revealed that Mn3+ > Fe3+, hence this mineral was renamed to mangani-obertiite.

Data provided by Günter Blaß show a wide range of Fe/Mn ratios in the obertiite root name minerals from the Eifel area. It is therefore likely that both ferri-obertiite and mangani-obertiite is present.

Ferri-obertiite was formally approved as a new mineral by IMA in 2015 (IMA 2015-079).

Possible K-analogue is known: Unnamed (possible K analogue of ferri-obertiite).
