The arfvedsonite group minerals are sodium amphiboles defined with A(Na+K+2Ca)> 0.5 apfu and 0.5 apfu < C(Al+Fe3++2Ti) < 1.5 apfu with Fe as the dominant element in the C3+ position.

Arfvedsonite is defined with

A position: Na dominant
C2+ position: Fe dominant
C3+ position: Fe dominant
W position: (OH) dominant
Colour:
Bluish-black to black.
Lustre:
