About the Mineral: Geological Characteristics
Bronzite is a ferriferous variety of enstatite, which has acquired a bronze-like sub-metallic luster on its cleavage planes due to partial weathering. Bronzite is a type of igneous rock that belongs to the peridotite group. It is primarily composed of the minerals olivine and pyroxene, and often contains small amounts of other minerals such as chromite, magnetite, and apatite. Bronzite has a characteristic dark brown to black color caused by the presence of iron in the mineral olivine. Bronzite forms when magma cools and solidifies deep beneath the Earth's surface. Bronzite is a firm and durable stone with a hardness of 5.5 to 6 on the Mohs scale.
