Name:
Fluoredenite was originally known as a synthetic compound and reported as early as 1955 by J. A. Kohn and J. E. Comeforo. In 1970, Dr. Bob Coffee, chemist at Kodak, chemically analysed and published on one an early discovery of non-synthetic fluoredenite. Named fluoro-edenite in 2001 by A. Gianfagna and R. Oberti following IMA rules in allusion to its composition, with dominant fluorine and its relationship to Edenite.
