About Pargasite Root Name GroupHide

Formula:

ACa₂(C²⁺₄C³⁺)(Al₂Si₆O₂₂)W₂

The pargasite minerals are defined with 0.5 < ^A(Na+K+2Ca)<1.5 where Na or K is dominant and with the C position occupied by Mg or Fe²⁺ as dominant divalent ions and 0.5 < ^C(Al+Fe³⁺+Cr³⁺+V³⁺+2Ti) < 1.5 where Al is dominant, except for chromio-pargasite, which has Cr³⁺ as the dominant trivalent ion in the C position and vanadio-pargasite, which has V³⁺ as the dominant trivalent ion in the C position. Note that if Fe³⁺ is instead the dominant C trivalent cation, the root name is not "ferri-pargasite", but instead becomes hastingsite.
The W position may contain (OH), F or Cl.

The individual pargasite minerals are defined by their dominant element in the A, C²⁺, C³⁺ and W position.

Analyzed by EPMA. Normalized to 13eCNK (13 T+C cations, excluding Ca, Na, and K [also excluding Pb, Ba, and Sr], which are assigned to the A+B sites). H2O calculated by stoichiometry. O in the OH site = 2*Ti apfu. Fe3+, Mn2+ and Mn3+ (and their oxides) calculated from charge balance, assuming all Fe assigned to Fe3+ before any Mn2+ is converted to Mn3+. Grains shows weak core/rim and patchy zoning, notably in Pb. This analysis is a grain core. Highest Pb content observed is 3.27 wt% PbO (= 0.13 Pb apfu).
