Optical Data of OsarizawaiteHide

This section is currently hidden. Click the show button to view.
Type:
Uniaxial (+)
RI values:
nω = 1.712(3) nε = 1.732(2)
Max. Birefringence:
δ = 0.020
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.

Surface Relief:
Moderate
Pleochroism:
Visible
Comments:
O = dark yellow
E = pale yellowish
Comments:
May be biaxial

Notes:
Insoluble in water and practically shows no reaction to nitric acid. Boiling concentrated hydrochloric or sulphuric acid disintegrates the mineral perfectly and precipitates lead chloride or lead sulphate.
Health Risks:
No information on health risks for this material has been entered into the database. You should always treat mineral specimens with care.
