Pyroxenite
Pyroxenite is an ultramafic igneous rock consisting essentially of minerals of the pyroxene group, such as augite, diopside, hypersthene, bronzite or enstatite. Pyroxenites are classified into clinopyroxenites, orthopyroxenites, and the websterites which contain both types of pyroxenes (see diagram below). Closely allied to this group are the hornblendites, consisting essentially of hornblende and other amphiboles. The pyroxenes (commonly abbreviated Px) are a group of important rock-forming inosilicate minerals found in many igneous and metamorphic rocks. Pyroxenes have the general formula XY(Si,Al)2O6, where X represents calcium (Ca), sodium (Na), iron (Fe II) or magnesium (Mg) and more rarely zinc, manganese or lithium, and Y represents ions of smaller size, such as chromium (Cr), aluminiumPyroxene

Pyroxenite an overview ScienceDirect Topics
Pyroxenite. Pyroxenites are ultramafic intrusive igneous rocks composed almost entirely of dark Pyroxene group minerals rich in iron and magnesium, e.g., Augite, Diopside, Pyroxenite, dark-coloured, intrusive igneous rock that consists chiefly of pyroxene. Pyroxenites are not abundant; they occur in discrete inclusions, in layered sills (tabular Pyroxenite Mafic, Ultramafic & Igneous Britannica

Another component to be discussed is ferrous iron. In nature, Fe 2+ enters any Mg phase to some extent. Because in mantle-derived peridotite, Mg strongly dominates over ferrous iron, and the latter is not much fractionated into a particular Mg–Fe phase, in contrast to Na or Cr, the influence on the phase relations is not severe.Phase Relations in Peridotitic and Pyroxenitic Rocks in the Model

Detection of iron-bearing mineral assemblages in Nainarmalai
The pyroxene granulite bands are associated with garnet-ferrous gneiss and quartzo-felspathic gneiss, pyroxenite, dolerite dyke, and pegmatite. The quartz veins occur as intrusive bodies. The area is structurally disturbed with repeated folding and NE-SW faulting and it is also subjected to granulite facies metamorphism as evidenced by The Sr i ratio of intercumulus plagioclase from the pyroxenite ranges from 07056 to 07067 with an average of 07061 ± 00003, which is similar to the Sr isotopic signature of cumulus plagioclase from this zone.

Slab window–related magmatism as a probe for pyroxenite
Olivines derived from crystallization of pyroxenite melts may have lower Ca and higher Ni contents than those derived from mantle peridotite at the same Fo content, where Fo = Mg/(Mg + Fe), and at T P = 1350 °C (Figs. 3A and 3B; e.g., Herzberg, 2011).However, elevated Ni contents can also be a result of magma recharge and mixing However, lavas from Koolau and Kilauea Iki in Hawaii, which are proposed to have originated from a source containing substantial quantities of secondary pyroxenite (about 80–100% and 40% of contribution from secondary pyroxenite for the Koolau and Kilauea basalts, respectively; Sobolev et al., 2005), show MORB-like Fe isotopic An eclogitic component in the Pitcairn mantle plume: Evidence

Pictures and Descriptions of Igneous Rock Types ThoughtCo
Igneous rocks are those that form via the process of melting and cooling. If they erupt from volcanoes onto the surface as lava, they are called extrusive rocks.By contrast, Intrusive rocks are formed from magma that cools underground. If the intrusive rock cooled underground but near the surface, it is called subvolcanic or hypabyssal, and Non-ferrous minerals are not iron-based like their ferrous counterparts and are found in chemical combinations. India has an extremely less quantity of non-ferrous metallic minerals except Bauxite. Some examples of such minerals include aluminum, tin, copper, lead, nickel, titanium, zinc, and copper alloys like brass and bronze.Minerals in India List of Major and Minor Minerals in India
