About Magnesio-hornblende
Formula:
◻Ca2(Mg4Al)(Si7Al)O22(OH)2
Defined as a an amphibole in the magnesiohornblende group of the Calcium subgroup with Mg>Fe2+ and Al>Fe3+ in the C position and with (OH) as the dominant anion in the W position.
Colour:
Medium green to dark green to green-black to black, brown
Lustre:
Vitreous
Hardness:
5 - 6
Specific Gravity:
3.137 (Calculated)
Crystal System:
Monoclinic
Member of:
Name:
For its high magnesium content, indicating Mg2+ as a dominant cation and relationship with hornblende. The latter name hornblende was first used by 1789 by Abraham Gottlieb Werner from an old German term for dark minerals with no ore value and from "blende", meaning to deceive in allusion to it occurring in ore deposits but not yielding any metal.
Amphibole Supergroup. Calcium Amphibole Subgroup.
Forms a series with ferro-hornblende.
May also grade into tremolite or actinolite.
