The first Ca-Tschermak-dominant clinopyroxene was found in terrestrial material - Romanian skarns - prior to its find/description from a meteorite.
The skarn material EPMA data [wt.%] is:
SiO2 34.37
TiO2 0.22
Al2O3 24.04
Cr2O3 0.05
FeOtot 9.67
MnO 0.16
MgO 5.11
CaO 24.83
Na2O 0.08
total 98.53
This corresponds to(Ca1.01Na0.01)Σ1.02(Al0.38Fe3+0.31Mg0.29Ti0.01Mn0.01)Σ0.99(Si1.30Al0.70)O6.
