About Hypersthene  –

 

Hypersthene is a former mineral name for an iron-bearing orthopyroxene, dark brown to black with a coppery or silvery sheen (schiller) that flashes across the surface. The name is no longer recognised by mineralogists, who now call it enstatite or ferrosilite, but it lives on in the crystal world.

 

It forms in igneous rocks such as norite and gabbro and in high-grade metamorphic rocks, crystallising from magnesium- and iron-rich melts.

Cool Facts  –

 

Hypersthene is a pyroxene mineral whose silvery sheen comes from thin plates of hematite inside it.

 

Its name comes from the Greek for "over-strength", because it is harder than hornblende, which it resembles.

 

It is found in igneous rocks and even in some meteorites.

 

Its name comes from Greek for 'over strength', because it was thought to be harder than hornblende; the name was officially retired in 1988.
