Pyroxenes have the general formula XY (Si,Al)2O6, [1] where X represents ions of calcium (Ca), sodium (Na), iron (Fe (II)) or magnesium (Mg) and more rarely zinc, manganese or lithium, and Y represents ions of smaller size, such as chromium (Cr), aluminium (Al), magnesium (Mg), cobalt (Co), manganese (Mn), scandium (Sc), titanium (Ti), vanadium ...

Jade ornaments and figurines fashioned by ancient Aztec and Mayan artisans are pyroxene’s most familiar face. An important rock-forming mineral of igneous and metamorphic rocks, pyroxene is not a specific mineral, but an informal name used for a …

Pyroxene is the name of a group of dark-colored rock-forming minerals found in igneous and metamorphic rocks throughout the world. They form under conditions of high temperature and/or high pressure. Augite, diopside, jadeite and spodumene are four of the best-known members of the pyroxene group; however, the pyroxene group has many other members.

2023年4月23日 · Pyroxene is a set of essential rock-forming inosilicate minerals discovered in many igneous and metamorphic rocks. Pyroxenes have the general components is XY (Si,Al)2O6. Although aluminium substitutes extensively for silicon in silicates consisting of feldspars and amphiboles, the substitution occurs only to a confined extent in most pyroxenes.

Pyroxenes are the most significant and abundant group of rock-forming ferromagnesian silicates. They are found in almost every variety of igneous rock and also occur in rocks of widely different compositions formed under conditions of regional and contact metamorphism.

Pyroxene was originally what might now be called "augite", but the name has been raised as a group name of structurally and chemically similar minerals. A large group of inosilicate (chain silicate) minerals with the general formula ADSi 2 O 6. It is divided into the Clinopyroxene Subgroup (monoclinic) and the Orthopyroxene Subgroup (orthorhombic).

As piroxenas (português europeu) ou piroxênios (português brasileiro) são um importante grupo de 21 inossilicatos de cadeia simples encontrados em múltiplas rochas ígneas e metamórficas, em muitas das quais constituem o grupo mineral dominante. O nome piroxena deriva do grego pyros, significando fogo, e de xenos, significando estranho.

Minerals in the pyroxene group are abundant in both igneous and metamorphic rocks. Their susceptibility to both chemical and mechanical weathering makes them a rare constituent of sedimentary rocks. Pyroxenes are classified as ferromagnesian minerals in allusion to their high content of magnesium and iron.

2021年8月9日 · Los piroxenos es el grupo de minerales más significativos y abundantes de silicatos ferromagnesianos que forman por lo general rocas oscuras. Se forman en rocas ígneas y metamórficas a condiciones de alta presión y temperatura.

Os piroxênios são o grupo de inossilicatos constituídos por cadeias simples de tetraedros de sílica. Os minerais mais comuns da família cristalizam-se nos sistemas ortorrômbico e monoclínico e são conhecidos como Ortopiroxênios e Clinopiroxênios.
