Purpurite is a manganese phosphate mineral with the formula MnPO 4, with varying amounts of iron depending upon its source. It occurs in color ranges from brownish black via purple and violet to dark red. [3] Purpurite forms a series with the iron-bearing endmember heterosite, FePO 4. [4]
Manganese is a chemical element; it has symbol Mn and atomic number 25. It is a hard, brittle, silvery metal, often found in minerals in combination with iron. Manganese was first isolated in the 1770s. Manganese is a transition metal with a multifaceted array of industrial alloy uses, particularly in stainless steels.
Manganese violet is the inorganic compound with the formula NH 4 MnP 2 O 7. [1] As implied by its name and composition, it is a purple, inorganic pigment. [2] Because it is often impure, the pigment's hue is varied. [3] Notable artists who have used the pigment include Claude Monet, who relied on manganese violet in his Rouen Cathedral series ...
Ochre is a family of earth pigments, which includes yellow ochre, red ochre, purple ochre, sienna, and umber. The major ingredient of all the ochres is iron (III) oxide-hydroxide, known as limonite, which gives them a yellow colour. A range of other minerals may also be included in the mixture: [ 5]: 134. Yellow ochre ( Goldochre) pigment.
Manganese(III) phosphate is an inorganic chemical compound of manganese with the formula MnPO 4. It is a hygroscopic purple solid that absorbs moisture to form the pale-green monohydrate, [1] though the anhydrous and monohydrate forms are typically each synthesized by separate methods.
Sugilite. Sugilite ( / ˈsuːɡəlaɪt, - dʒi -/ SOO-gə-lyte, -jee-) [2] [3] is a relatively rare pink to purple cyclosilicate mineral with the complex chemical formula K Na 2 ( Fe, Mn, Al) 2 Li 3 Si 12 O 30. Sugilite crystallizes in the hexagonal system with prismatic crystals. The crystals are rarely found and the form is usually massive.
Pyrolusite is a mineral consisting essentially of manganese dioxide ( Mn O 2) and is important as an ore of manganese. [7] It is a black, amorphous appearing mineral, often with a granular, fibrous, or columnar structure, sometimes forming reniform crusts. It has a metallic luster, a black or bluish-black streak, and readily soils the fingers.
