Cummingtonite

a mineral from the series of monoclinic amphiboles. The chemical composition is (Mg, Fe)7[Si₄O₁₁]2 (OH)₂; admixtures of Ca, Al, Mn, and Na are common. The Mg-rich members are called cupfferite; the more ferruginous ones are called griinerite. Cummingtonite forms fibrous aggregates or radiating, columnar masses of brownish gray to dark brown color. It has a hardness of 5.5–6 on the mineralogical scale; its density ranges from 3,100 to 3,600 kg/m³. Cummingtonite is a characteristic mineral of metamorphic schists. It is also encountered in contact-metasomatic skarns and metamorphogenetic ore deposits.
