sinoite Min.|ˈsaɪnəʊaɪt| [f. the chemical symbols for silicon (Si), nitrogen (N) and oxygen (O) + -ite1.] Silicon oxynitride, Si2N2O, found as colourless orthorhombic crystals in some chondritic meteorites.
1964C. A. Andersen et al. in Science 9 Oct. 257/3 We propose the name sinoite, which is derived directly from the chemical formula, for this new mineral. 1966Geochimica & Cosmochimica Acta XXX. 367 Sinoite has only been found in the enstatite chondrites. 1972Nature 22 Dec. 461/2 The relatively high nitrogen content in some enstatite chondrites is partly due to the presence of the mineral sinoite, Si2N2O, which so far has been found only in two meteorites. |
