About BronziteHide

Formula:

(Mg,Fe²⁺)₂[SiO₃]₂

Name:

Named for the bronze-like submetallic luster on the characteristic cleavage surfaces.

A variety of Enstatite

An iron(II)-bearing variety of enstatite.
The iron-dominant member is ferrosilite.
See also the obsolete hypersthene, a mid-way member between enstatite and ferrosilite.
