Tissintite,(Ca, Na,□) AlSi2O6, a highly-defective, shock-induced, high-pressure clinopyroxene in the Tissint martian meteorite
Tissintite is a new vacancy-rich, high-pressure clinopyroxene, with a composition essentially
equivalent to plagioclase. It was discovered in maskelynite (shocked plagioclase) and is …
