Aerinite (Ca 4(Al, Fe, Mg)10 Si 12 O 35(O H)12 C O3·12 H 2 O) is a bluish-purple inosilicate mineral. It crystallizes in the monoclinic system and occurs as fibrous or compact masses and coatings. It has a dark, vitreous luster, a specific gravity of 2.48 and a Mohs hardness of 3.

A rare, chemically complex carbonate-bearing silicate. Found as a pigment in European murals. NB: Some of the recorded Spanish localities for aerinite ...

2015年10月5日 · The mineral aerinite is an interesting mineral because it contains both silicate and carbonate units which is unusual. It is also a highly colored mineral being bright blue/purple. We have studied aerinite using a combination of techniques which included scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray analysis, Raman and infrared ...

硅镁钙石（Aerinite ?）是采集于西班牙 (Spain)的岩石标本。

6.9 x 4.7 x 3.4 cm. Aerinite is a very rare chemically complex carbonate-bearing silicate. It is a hydrothermal mineral of the zeolite facies, formed at relatively low temperature, in fractures cutting mafic igneous rocks (MINDAT). Three sides of the matrix are richly covered with powder-blue aerinite crusts. Two of the sides are striking ...

Aerinite is a rare mineral that occurs at its French locality at Saint Pendelon as “a hydrothermal mineral of the zeolite facies, formed at relatively low temperatures in fractures cutting mafic igneous rocks” in association with prehenite, scoleite, and mesolite.

Named from the Greek root "aer-", alluding to atmosphere or sky and hence the color, sky blue. Comments: Pale blue massive aerinite. Location: Cripple Creek, Teller County, Colorado, USA.
