...Its chemical composition is NaFe 3+ Si 2 O 6 , which is a calcium pyroxene Ca(Mg,Fe 2+ )Si 2 O 6 with Na replacing the Ca and Fe 3+ replacing the (Mg,Fe 2+ ). A specimen with the same composition and crystal structure but a different crystal habit is called acmite. It has dark green to black columnar or granular crystals, sometimes with pyramidal tips. ...
