Detailed Mineral List:
| โ Aegirine-augite Formula: (NaaCabFe2+cMgd)(Fe3+eAlfFe2+gMgh)Si2O6 Description: In pegmatite |
| โ Aegirine-augite var. Blanfordite Formula: (Na,Ca)(Fe3+,Fe2+,Mn,Mg,Al)Si2O6 Description: In pegmatite |
| โ Andradite Formula: Ca3Fe3+2(SiO4)3 |
| โ 'Apatite' Formula: Ca5(PO4)3(Cl/F/OH) |
| โ Braunite Formula: Mn2+Mn3+6(SiO4)O8 |
| โ Clino-suenoite Formula: ◻{Mn2+2}{Mg5}(Si8O22)(OH)2 |
| โ Cryptomelane Formula: K(Mn4+7Mn3+)O16 |
| โช Ferri-ghoseite (TL) Formula: ◻[Mn2+Na][Mg4Fe3+]Si8O22(OH)2 Type Locality: Habit: Prismatic blades that breaks up to silky, asbestos-like fibers Colour: yellow to honey-yellow Description: Large prismatic crystals of Mn-bearing alkali amphibole (up to 25 cm in length, as in the Tirodi West Hill pegmatites) occur in Tirodi, where pegmatites cut across gondites and Mn ore bodies. These occurrences are restricted to the sillimanite zone. References: Oberti, Roberta, Ghose, Subrata (1993) Crystal-chemistry of a complex Mn-bearing alkali amphibole ("tirodite") on the verge of exsolution. European Journal of Mineralogy, 5 (6) 1153-1160 doi:10.1127/ejm/5/6/1153 |
| โ Ferri-katophorite Formula: Na(CaNa)(Mg4Fe3+)(AlSi7O22)(OH)2 |
| โ Ferri-winchite Formula: ◻(NaCa)(Mg4Fe3+)Si8O22(OH)2 Colour: Matted group of tan colored bladed crystals Description: Microprobe analyses published on Rruff.info as winchite corrosponds to the following composition (typical): (Na0.094K0.06)0.154 (Ca1.354Na0.646)2 (Mg4.123Fe20.335Mn20.227Fe20.181Al0.108Ti0.002)4.976 Si8.025O22((OH)1.828F0.167O0.004)1.999
It should be noted that the total oxide wt% is low <98%.
As Fe >Al, the composition corresponds to ferri-winchite rather than winchite. The formula is normalized using Andrew J. Locock (2014): An Excel spreadsheet to classify chemical analyses of amphiboles following the IMA 2012 recommendations. Computers & Geosciences, Volume 62, pp 1-11.The formula corresponds well with the published formula on Rruff.info References: |
| โ Hollandite Formula: Ba(Mn4+6Mn3+2)O16 |
| โ Kanoite Formula: Mn2+(Mg,Mn2+)Si2O6 References: https://e-rocks.com/item/sky1035532/kanoiteIdentification: Dealer/Collection Label |
| โ 'K Feldspar' |
| โ Magnesio-arfvedsonite Formula: {Na}{Na2}{Mg4Fe3+}(Si8O22)(OH)2 Description: Ananlysis as presented by Nayak and Neuvonen corresponds to a winchite composition. The entry as magnesio-arfvedsonite is based on work by Nayak, V. K. and Leake, B. E. (1975). On 'winchite' from the original locality at Kajlidongri, India, Mineralogical Magazine, 40,395-399.

| โ Nambulite Formula: LiMn2+4Si5O14(OH) |
| โ Quartz Formula: SiO2 |
| โ Rhodonite Formula: CaMn3Mn[Si5O15] |
| โ Spessartine Formula: Mn2+3Al2(SiO4)3 |
| โ Uvarovite Formula: Ca3Cr2(SiO4)3 |
| โ Formula: ◻{CaNa}{Mg4Al}(Si8O22)(OH)2 Locality: South Tirodi Mine, Tirodi, Balaghat District, Jabalpur Division, Madhya Pradesh, India - erroneously reported Description: These blue to lilac amphiboles are heavily zoned, but predominantly magnesio-arfvedsonites. |
