| ⓘ Calcite Formula: CaCO3 References: |
| ⓘ 'Calcium Amphibole Subgroup' Formula: AnCa2(Z2+5-mZ3+m)(Si8-(n+m)Al(n+m))(OH,F,Cl)2 Description: Sadashivajah, M.S., and Naganna, C. (1964) published the amphibole from Jothvad Hill as winchite. Their analysis show some anomalies, as Ʃ(Si+Al) < 8, ƩC position<5 and ƩA position >1. Based on a high Ca content it is likely that the amphibole analysed by Sathe et. al (1965) belongs to the Calcium Amphibole Subgroup. |
| ⓘ Diopside Formula: CaMgSi2O6 References: |
| ⓘ Grossular Formula: Ca3Al2(SiO4)3 References: |
| ⓘ Quartz Formula: SiO2 References: |
| ⓘ Formula: ◻{CaNa}{Mg4Al}(Si8O22)(OH)2 Description: The identification of winchite from the Goldongri Mine was based on a general consensus at the time that all violet amphiboles from the Indian metamorphic manganese ores (gondites) was winchite. Later microprobe analyses show a variety of compositions, mostly corresponding to magnesio-arfvedsonite. |
| ⓘ Wollastonite Formula: Ca3(Si3O9) Habit: Stellate groups References: |
