| 1. | Similarly, cummingtonite has lower ferric iron and aluminium than anthophyllite.
|
| 2. | It is the iron endmember of the grunerite-cummingtonite series.
|
| 3. | Calcium, sodium and potassium concentrations in cummingtonite are low.
|
| 4. | Cummingtonite tends toward more calcium substitution than related anthophyllite.
|
| 5. | Cummingtonite has also been found in some felsic volcanic rocks such as dacites.
|
| 6. | Cummingtonite shares few compositional similarities with alkali amphiboles such as arfvedsonite, glaucophane-riebeckite.
|
| 7. | With prograde metamorphism cummingtonite and grunerite morph to members of the olivine and pyroxene series.
|
| 8. | It may be difficult to distinguish cummingtonite from the Mg rich variety in hand specimens.
|
| 9. | These are : anthophyllite, riebeckite, cummingtonite / grunerite series, and actinolite / tremolite series.
|
| 10. | Manganese also substitutes for ( Fe, Mg ) within cummingtonite amphibole, replacing B site atoms.
