Optical Data of Potassic-ferro-ferri-taramiteHide

Type:
Biaxial (-)
RI values:
nα = 1.702 - 1.708 nβ = 1.709 - 1.717 nγ = 1.712 - 1.718
Birefringence:
bright orange-red birefringence colours and
Max. Birefringence:
δ = 0.010
Based on recorded range of RI values above.

Interference Colours:
The colours simulate birefringence patterns seen in thin section under crossed polars. They do not take into account mineral colouration or opacity.

Michel-Levy Bar The default colours simulate the birefringence range for a 30 µm thin-section thickness. Adjust the slider to simulate a different thickness.

Grain Simulation You can rotate the grain simulation to show how this range might look as you rotated a sample under crossed polars. Each grain retains its interference colour (retardation) while its brightness falls to black at extinction and reaches a maximum between extinction positions.

Surface Relief:
Very High (positive)
Relative to Canada balsam mounting medium (n ≈ 1.537).

This shows the grain boundary and Becke line effect under plane-polarised light, based on the contrast between this mineral's average refractive index and the mounting medium. It does not take into account mineral colouration.
In focus
Interference Figure:
This shows the idealized biaxial acute bisectrix (Bxa) interference figure - the conoscopic view for a grain cut perpendicular to the acute bisectrix, using this mineral's 2V. The two small white dots mark the melatopes - the points where the two optic axes emerge - and are shown only when they fall within the field of view. The coloured bands are isochromatics, and the dark bands are isogyres.

Rotate the stage: at 0°/90° the isogyres form a cross through the melatopes; at 45° they pull apart into curved hyperbolas. That splitting on rotation - absent in a uniaxial figure - is the standard diagnostic test for telling biaxial minerals from uniaxial ones. If 2V is large, the melatopes may fall outside the field of view, as they often do at the microscope too.

No measured or calculated 2V is on file for this mineral, so the value used here (53°) is estimated from its recorded refractive indices and optic sign, not from a direct 2V measurement.
Optical Extinction:
incomplete extinction in sections parallel to (010)
Pleochroism:
Strong
Comments:
a pale to light yellow, B deep blue-green, and. c deep blue to green to black

Type Occurrence of Potassic-ferro-ferri-taramiteHide

Type Locality:
ⓘ Mbozi complex, Songwe Region, Tanzania
General Appearance of Type Material:
The mafic minerals occur as prismatic grains up to 3 mm long and from 0.5 to 2 mm thick, which are commonly sub- to euhedral. The amphibole and the aegirine-augite poikilitically enclose a few small rounded grains of feldspars and nepheline
Place of Conservation of Type Material:
Not given
Geological Setting of Type Material:
The amphibole occurs most commonly as discrete grains in late stage nepheline-syenite dykes but is also found as a rim on other amphiboles in some of the metasomatic rocks. The mineral on which the optical determinations and analyses were carried out comes from a 4.5 meter dyke intruding nepheline-bearing gneisses.
