Riebeckite is a sodium-rich
member of the
amphibole group of
silicate minerals,
chemical formula Na2(Fe2+3Fe3+2)Si8O22(OH)2. It
forms a

amphibole minerals are
commonly called asbestos.
These are: anthophyllite,
riebeckite, the ****mingtonite/grunerite series, and the actinolite/tremolite series...

alkali amphiboles such as arfvedsonite, glaucophane-
riebeckite.
There is
little solubility between these minerals due to
different crystal...
