Köppen climate type:
Peralkaline and feldspathoidal gneisses form a layer (7-20 m thick) within the Precambrian Dahomeyan basement gneisses. It can be traced almost continuously for 76 km (Kesse 1985) in the vicinity of the towns of Somanya, Kpong and Pore (Holm 1974).
Approx coords range: 6º00' - 6º18'N; 0º02'W - 0º15'E.
The nepheline gneisses have been investigated as a feedstock for glass and ceramics (Allen & Charsley 1968).

| ⓘ 'Amphibole Supergroup' Formula: AB2C5((Si,Al,Ti)8O22)(OH,F,Cl,O)2 Description: Amphiboles range up to 10 modal percent with biotite and aegirine-rich pyroxene in the leucocratic nepheline gneisses, and may be as much as 55 percent in the mafic and feldspar-poor nepheline gneisses
where they occur with grandite and aegirine-augites closer to soda augite. The amphiboles are black in hand specimens and may form a lineation.
Hastingsite (as defined by Leake, 1968) and iron-rich alkaline amphibole are the only types present. The leucocratic nepheline gneisses contain amphiboles richest in Na and Fe3+. (Holm, 1971) References: |

| ⓘ 'Ferro-ferri-sadanagaite' ? Formula: {Na}{Ca2}{Fe2+3Fe3+2}(Al3Si5O22)(OH)2 Description: Holm (1974) provide a wet-chemical analysis corresponding to ferro-ferri-sadanagaite:
SiO2, 37.02%
TiO2, 1.64%
Al2O3, 17.29%
Fe2O3, 7.79%
FeO, 14.94%
MnO, 0.53%
MgO, 5.19%
CaO, 9.46%
Na2O, 3.38%
K2O, 2.4%
When this is normalized (using Locock 2014), the empirical formula becomes (Na0.592K0.469)Σ1.061 (Ca1.552Na0.411Mn0.038)Σ2.001 (Feii1.913Mg1.184FeIII0.897Al0.786Ti0.189Mnii0.031)Σ5 (Si5.667Al2.333)Σ8 O22 ((OH)1.622O0.378)Σ2. With exception of a slightly high A content (1.061 apfu), Holm's data normalizes well. However, his other analyses show a too high C3+ content, and the interpretation of this analysis as ferro-ferri-sadanagaite is therefore questioned.

This gives a low total in the C position ( 4.694) of which 3.122 apfu is trivalent. Both of these indicate analytical errors. |
