Abstract/NotesSummaryChemical analyses, optical properties, and specific gravities are presented for nine axinites. A reciprocal substitution relationship is demonstrated between Mg and Mn2+, and a linear variation diagram is constructed between refractive indices and the (Fe2++Fe3++Mn2++Ti) ions calculated on the basis of 16(O,OH). The composition of these axinites is independent of the composition of their host rocks; their colour appears to be independent of the Fe2+/Mn2+ ratio for the range of iron and manganese values of the specimens investigated.
