Analcimite

Analcimite is a type of igneous rock; it is a subvolcanic rock or an extrusive rock.[1] It is composed mostly of the minerals analcime and titanaugite. Analcimite is a type of foidite.[2] Varieties are olivine analcimite, leucocratic analcimite and augite analcimite.[3] Chemically, although analcime is a sodium aluminium silicate mineral, analcimite is a ???potassic??? or an ???ultrapotassic??? alkaline igneous rock.[4] It is ultramafic or mafic in the TAS classification (see TAS diagram).[5]

Analcimite forms lava flows[6] and volcanic plugs[7] as well as subvolcanic dykes[8] and sills.[9]

There is also basanitic-analcimite[10] - it occupies the same QAPF field as tephritic foidite. (Basanitic foidite has more than 10% CIPW normative olivine, tephritic foidite has less than 10%).

Examples

[edit]
  • near Si Lake, Marion County, Oregon[11]
  • Bald Hill near Wallan, Victoria, Australia[12]
  • near Santo Antônio da Barra, in southwestern Goiás, Brazil[13] - relict leucite crystals in this analcimite suggests it is actually altered leucitite.[14]
  • Zákupy diatreme, Czech Republic[15]
  • Trijebine, Serbia[16]
  • near Cooktown, Queensland, Australia[17]
  • Midland Valley of Scotland[18]
  • Los Molinos, Cordoba Province, Argentina[19]
  • near Meshkinshahr, Iran[20]
  • Teic Dam, Iran[21]
  • Tamazert, Morocco[22]
  • Tubuai, French Polynesia[23]
  • Makhtesh Ramon, Israel[24]
  • Taiúva in the Bauru Basin of São Paulo (state), Brazil[25]
  • Humphreys County, Mississippi[26]
  • Ary-Dzhang in Arctic Siberia, Russia[27]
  • Monroe Uplift, Arkansas[28]
  • Spring Mountain volcanic plug near Glen Innes in NSW, Australia[29]
  • Adrar, Mauritania[30]
  • North Qilian Mountains, China[31] (leucite-analcimite)
