Extract

In a recent paper the occurrence was described of a very iron-rich orthorhombic pyroxene in thermally metamorphosed iron-rich rocks in Manchuria. The crystals are commonly 2-5 cm. in length, but some are larger, and they are accompanied by grunerite, small garnets, and disseminated magnetite. Some of these crystals are optically positive, and the following data were obtained on one crystal.
