About ChamositeHide

Formula:

Fe²⁺₅Al(AlSi₃O₁₀)(OH)₈

Colour:

Green, grey-green, brown-green, dark green, black

Lustre:

Pearly

Hardness:

Specific Gravity:

3.0 - 3.4

Crystal System:

Monoclinic

Member of:

Chlorite Group

Name:

Originally named "chamoisite" in 1820 by Pierre Berthier for the type locality Haut de Cry, near Chamoson, Valais, Switzerland.

Type Locality:

ⓘ Haut de Cry, Chamoson, Conthey, Valais, Switzerland

The iron(II) analogue of clinochlore, with which it forms a solid-solution series (chamosite-clinochlore series).
A very common member of the chlorite group, but less common than clinochlore.

Easily confused with berthierine.
Note: berthierine is difficult to recognise by normal XRD methods because the critical identifying feature, the absence of a 14 Å basal reflection, is commonly masked by a peak due to admixed chlorite (Brindley, 1982; Slack et al., 1992).

Max. Birefringence:

δ = 0.004 - 0.014
Based on recorded range of RI values above.

Interference Colours:
The colours simulate birefringence patterns seen in thin section under crossed polars. They do not take into account mineral colouration or opacity.

Michel-Levy Bar The default colours simulate the birefringence range for a 30 µm thin-section thickness. Adjust the slider to simulate a different thickness.

Grain Simulation You can rotate the grain simulation to show how this range might look as you rotated a sample under crossed polars.

Thickness: 30 µm

Rotation:

Surface Relief:

Moderate

Dispersion:

r < v weak to strong

Orientation:

Y= b; X ^ a = 88°-90°; Z ^ a = 0°-2°: or rarely Y= b; X ^ a ' 0°; Z ^ a ' 90° .
