Sacrofanite
Sacrofanite is a rare silicate mineral that has the general formula of (Na,Ca)9(Si,Al)12O24(SO4,CO3,OH,Cl)4·n(H2O).〔 Nickel, E., and Nichols, M. (1980) IMA/CNMNC List of Mineral Names. Official IMA-CNMNC List of Mineral Names, 247. 〕 It was approved as a mineral by the International Mineralogical Association in 1980.〔 Its name comes from the Sacrofano Caldera in the Monti Sabatini from which it was discovered in Latium, Italy.〔 ==Structure and optical properties== It has a hexagonal crystal system, meaning crystallographically it has three horizontal axes of equal length that make an angle of 120° with their positive ends, with a long vertical axis running perpendicular to them. The mineral is anisotropic, meaning the velocity of light through a mineral will vary depending on the direction that the light is going. It has a moderate relief ranging from 1.486 to 1.505.〔 It has a birefringence of 0.019, with birefringence being the decomposition of a light ray into two different rays when light hits a mineral.〔 Sacrofanite is uniaxial negative, meaning it has one optic axis and that the index of refraction for the ordinary ray is greater than the index of refraction for the extraordinary ray.〔 Nelson, Stephen, 25 October 2010, "Uniaxial Minerals, Uniaxial Indicatrix, Optic Sign, and Ray Path." http://www.tulane.edu/~sanelson/eens211/uniaxial_minerals.htm.
