Summary
Description00031 6 cm grossular calcite augite skarn.jpg
Eesti: Skarn on moondekivim, mis tekib magmaplutoonidest pärit hüdrotermaalsete lahuste ja plutoone ümbritsevate karbonaatsete kivimite vahelise keemilise reaktsiooni tulemusel. Selle tagajärjel tekivad kaltsiumi sisaldavad silikaadid (antud juhul roheline pürokseen augiit ja oranž granaat grossular). Sinine mineraal on kaltsiit (karbonaatsete kivimite peamine koostismineraal). Pildil kujutatu laius on 6 cm. Lisainfo: [1]
English: Skarn from Mount Monzoni, Northern Italy. Skarn is a metamorphic rock type. It forms when magmatic liquids react with carbonate rocks (limestone, marble). This skarn is composed of calcite (blue), pyroxene augite (green), and garnet grossular (orange). The width of the view is 6 cm. Additional information from the source: [2]
