periclasen.

Brit.

/ˈpɛrᵻkleɪz/,

/ˈpɛrᵻkleɪs/, U.S.

/ˈpɛrəˌkleɪs/,

/ˈpɛrəˌkleɪz/

Origin: Formed within English, by derivation; modelled on a Latin lexical item. Etymons: peri- prefix, -clase comb. form.

Etymology: < peri- prefix + -clase comb. form, after Italian periclasia ( A. Scacchi Memorie Mineralogiche e Geologiche (1841) 23); < peri- peri- prefix + ancient Greek κλάσις fracture (see -clase comb. form), with reference to its perfect cleavage; compare Hellenistic Greek περίκλασις the action of twisting or wheeling round, modification, brokenness, ruggedness). Compare French périclase (1856 or earlier).

Mineralogy.

A colourless mineral consisting of magnesium oxide, crystallizing in the cubic system and occurring in marble and limestone.
