About Calcioancylite-(Ce)Hide

This section is currently hidden. Click the show button to view.

Formula:

(Ce,Ca,Sr)CO3(OH,H2O)

Colour:

Colourless, white, pale pink, pink, grey

Crystal System:

Orthorhombic

Name:

From the Greek αγκυλός ("ankylos") for "curved", in allusion to its usually rounded and distorted crystal shapes, and the prefix "CALCIO-" in allusion to its composition with CALCIum dominant over strontium, plus the "-(Ce)" suffix due to cerium being the dominant REE.
