Researchers at Osaka Metropolitan University have investigated the status of iron ions in monoclinic pyroxenes, an endeavour that is key for the future analysis of iron and other minerals’ flakes. In ...
Pyroxenes are a major group of rock-forming silicate minerals that generally contain calcium, magnesium, and iron. Given their abundance, elucidating the physical properties of pyroxenes is deemed ...
Pyroxenes are a major group of rock-forming minerals. Scientists investigated the iron ion status of a calcium-rich pyroxene, using Mössbauer spectroscopy on thin sections of single crystals. The ...
