1921 D. F. Hewett & E. V. Shannon in Amer. Jrnl. Sci. 201 491 As the mineral is known to occur in two localities in Oriente Province, where many manganese deposits are found, and it may be widespread in the region, it is appropriate that the geographic relation be perpetuated in the name orientite.

1961 Amer. Mineralogist 46 227 The largest known crystals of orientite do not exceed 1 mm. in length.

1998 Proc. Quadrennial IAGOD Symp. 9 603 Orientite has lower Al₂O₃ content than macfallite, and both minerals from the Wakasa mine are rich in Fe, as compared with chemical analyses of those phases reported in previous investigations.
