About ZoisiteHide

Sigmund Zois Freiherr von Edelstein

Formula:

(CaCa)(AlAlAl)O[Si₂O₇][SiO₄](OH)

Colour:

Colourless, purple, greyish-white, grey, yellowish-brown, yellow, pink, green, blue, violet

Lustre:

Vitreous, Pearly

Hardness:

6 - 7

Specific Gravity:

3.15 - 3.36

Crystal System:

Orthorhombic

Name:

Originally named saualpite for the locality Saualpe in Carinthia, Austria, where it occurs in eclogites. The name zoisite was introduced by A.G. Werner in 1805 to honour Sigmund Zois, Baron von Edelstein (1747-1819), an Austrian scholar who financed mineral-collecting expeditions. It was from Baron Zois that Werner obtained the holotype specimen from Saualpe (found by mineral dealer Simon Prešern in 1804).

Type Locality:

ⓘ Prickler Halt, Eberstein, Sankt Veit an der Glan District, Carinthia, Austria

Dimorph of:

Clinozoisite

Formerly assigned to the Epidote Group. Since Zoisite is the orthorhombic polymorph of Clinozoisite, zoisite is no longer considered a member of this group, according to the new nomenclature of the Epidote Supergroup (Armbruster et al., 2006; Mills et al., 2009).

The fully calcian (or Ca2) analogue of zoisite-(Pb).

At 550 °C, clinozoisite is considerably less stable than zoisite, and the reaction with clinozoisite, though reversible, is metastable (Jenkins et al., 1983; see also Jenkins et al., 1985); Fe-free clinozoisite becomes stable relative to zoisite below about 200 °C.

Optical Data of ZoisiteHide

Type:

Biaxial (+)

RI values:

n_α = 1.696 - 1.700 n_β = 1.696 - 1.702 n_γ = 1.702 - 1.718

Max. Birefringence:

δ = 0.006 - 0.018
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. Each grain retains its interference colour (retardation) while its brightness falls to black at extinction and reaches a maximum between extinction positions.

Thickness: 30 µm Order divisions

Rotation:

Surface Relief:

Very High (positive)
Relative to Canada balsam mounting medium (n ≈ 1.537).

This shows the grain boundary and Becke line effect under plane-polarised light, based on the contrast between this mineral's average refractive index and the mounting medium. It does not take into account mineral colouration.

Focus:

In focus

Interference Figure:

This shows the idealized biaxial acute bisectrix (Bxa) interference figure - the conoscopic view for a grain cut perpendicular to the acute bisectrix, using this mineral's 2V. The two small white dots mark the melatopes - the points where the two optic axes emerge - and are shown only when they fall within the field of view. The coloured bands are isochromatics, and the dark bands are isogyres.

Rotate the stage: at 0°/90° the isogyres form a cross through the melatopes; at 45° they pull apart into curved hyperbolas. That splitting on rotation - absent in a uniaxial figure - is the standard diagnostic test for telling biaxial minerals from uniaxial ones. If 2V is large, the melatopes may fall outside the field of view, as they often do at the microscope too.

No measured or calculated 2V is on file for this mineral, so the value used here (34°) is estimated from its recorded refractive indices and optic sign, not from a direct 2V measurement.

Thickness: 30 µm

Stage rotation: 0°

Dispersion:

relatively strong

Pleochroism:

Visible

Comments:

X= pale pink to red violet
Y= nearly colourless to bright pink or deep blue
Z= pale yellow to yellow-green

Varieties of ZoisiteHide

Chrome-Zoisite	A Cr-bearing variety of Zoisite.
Pseudozoisite	A zoisite with anomalous optical properties.
Tanzanite	A gem variety of zoisite with a blue to blue-violet colour. The colour is due to the incorporation of trace amounts of vanadium cations (V⁴⁺ absorption band increased at 380 nm, V³⁺ absorption band at 350 nm decreased with heating). Note that a signifi...
Thulite	A pink variety of zoisite, frequently manganian, i.e. containing trivalent Mn (not manganoan, which refers to divalent Mn). Originally described from Kleppan, Sauland, Hjartdal, Telemark, Norway. Note: "Thulite" from granite pegmatites and some metamorp...
