Ferri-kaersutite, NaCa2(Mg3TiFe3+)(Si6Al2)O22O2, a new anhydrous amphibole from Harrows Peak, Northern Victoria Land, Antarctica
Ferri-kaersutite, ideally NaCa2(Mg3TiFe3+)(Si6Al2)O22O2, is a new oxo-amphibole from Harrow Peaks, Northern Victoria Land, Antarctica. It occurs as brown prismatic crystals, up to 200 μm in length, with a vitreous luster, and a perfect {110} cleavage. Ferri-kaersutite is associated with forsterite,...
