octahedriten.

Brit.

/ˌɒktəˈhiːdrʌɪt/, U.S.

/ˌɑktəˈhiˌdraɪt/

Forms: 1800s– octahedrite, 1800s– octohedrite.

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

Etymology: < octahedron n. + -ite suffix¹, after French octaédrite (H.-B. de Saussure Voyages dans les Alpes (1796) IV. 85).On the form in octo- see the discussion at octa- comb. form. N.E.D. (1902) gives also the pronunciation (-he·drəit) /-ˈhɛdraɪt/ for the second element.

1. Mineralogy. A mineral consisting of titanium dioxide and forming octahedral crystals. Now usually called anatase.

1805 R. Jameson Syst. Mineral. II. 493 Octahedrite... Its colour passes from indigo-blue, through many shades, to dark reddish-brown and yellowish-brown.

1818 Philos. Trans. (Royal Soc.) 108 225 (table) Octohedrite.

1868 J. D. Dana Syst. Mineral. (ed. 5) 162 De Saussure's name octahedrite has priority, and is particularly appropriate, the crystals being usually octahedrons.

1959 C. S. Hurlbut Dana's Man. Mineral. (ed. 17) ii. 79 For zircon the length of the vertical axis is expressed as c = 0.901, for octahedrite as c = 1.777.

1974 W. R. Hamilton et al. Hamlyn Guide Minerals Rocks & Fossils (1989) 50 Anatase (Octahedrite) TiO₂.

2. An iron meteorite which shows a Widmanstätten structure on etching, due to intimate intergrowths of plates of kamacite with narrow borders of taenite oriented parallel to the faces of a regular octahedron.
