oceaniten.

Brit.

/ˈəʊʃn̩ʌɪt/,

/ˈəʊsɪənʌɪt/, U.S.

/ˈoʊʃəˌnaɪt/

Origin: Formed within English, by derivation; modelled on a French lexical item. Etymons: ocean n., -ite suffix¹.

Etymology: < ocean n. + -ite suffix¹, after French océanite (A. Lacroix Minéral. de Madagascar (1923) III. iii. 49), so called because of the abundance of such rocks on ocean islands.

Geology.

Any of various dark-coloured basalts which are very rich in olivine.
