| ⓘ 'Wollastonite-1A' Formula: CaSiO3 Habit: radial or sheaf-like aggregates composed of individual crystals up to 30 mm long and 1 mm wide. Colour: snow white Fluorescence: The mineral is slightly luminescent under long-wave (366 nm) ultraviolet radiation, the luminescence tint being light blue. The powders show a strong cathodoluminescence in blue tints, which is also
