单词 | pyroxmangite |
释义 | pyroxmangiten. Mineralogy. A rare manganese-containing silicate mineral of the pyroxenoid group, found as pink to brown crystals in some metamorphic and metasomatic rocks.Pyroxmangite is a form of manganese silicate, MnSiO3, and is a polymorph of rhodonite, having a chain structure with a repeating unit of seven (rather than five) silicate tetrahedra. Crystal system: triclinic.

E. Ford & W. M. Bradley in Amer. Jrnl. Sci. 186 169 (heading) Pyroxmangite, a new member of the pyroxene group and its alteration product, skemmatite. 1937 Amer. Mineralogist 22 720 The pyroxmangite forms an important constituent of a manganiferous schist interbedded with a series of para-gneisses [among the Lewisian rocks of Scotland]... Pyroxmangite in this rock occurs in pink grains of ½–¾ mm. average grain size. Exceptionally grains up to 5 mm. diameter may appear as porphyroblasts. 1963 W. A. Deer et al. Rock-forming Minerals II. 201 Pyroxmangite is a mineral of metamorphic or metasomatic rocks, being found typically in manganese-rich assemblages in association with spessartine garnet, tephroite,..or rhodochrosite. 1988 Amer. Mineralogist 73 798/2 A pyroxenoid of MnSiO3 composition undergoes successive polymorphic transformations from rhodonite to pyroxmangite to clinopyroxene and ultimately to garnet-type structures as pressure increases at constant temperature.
