Humite Occurrences The principal occurrence is in high grade metamorphosed mafic and ultramafic rocks. They have been found in Monte Somma, Mount Vesuvius, Italy; Paragas, Finland; Varmland, Sweden; Tilly Foster Mine, Brewster, New York, USA and some other localities. At one time, humites generated interest as a possible mineralogical site for water in the earths upper mantle. Titaniferous clinohumite was studied by Merrill et al. (1972) and was found to be stable as a hydrous mineral up to 1170°C at 3 GPa. Striated, brown, tabular crystals of Humite. Monte Somma (Vesuvius), Campania, Italy.

Humite Structure

Humite Chemistry Octahedral Sites In the M sites, Ca substitutes up to.2 weight % CaO. Zn is also as abundent but is found more often in the Mn- isotypes. NiO as also been found in these sites. Ti is found to prefer the M3 site. Fe is also found to substitute for Mg. Tetrahedral Sites B and Be can substitute for Si.

Humite Compressibility

TF chondrodite (X OH = 0.42): A bulk modulus of K 0,T =117.0(4) GPa was derived from P-V data with a pressure derivative of K T ´=5.6(1). Previous compression studies of chondrodites revealed: K 0,T =115.5(6) GPa, K T ´=5.0(2), X OH =1.0, [1]; K S =118.4(1.6) GPa, X OH =0.68, [2]; K 0,T =136(  9) GPa, K T ´=3.7(  0.4), X OH =0.27, [3]; if K T ´= : K 0,T = KiL clinohumite (X OH = 0.40): K 0.T =119(3) GPa, K T ´=6.3(8). If K´=5: K 0.T =123.6(8) GPa. Previous compression studies of clinohumites revealed: K 0.T =119.4(7) GPa, K´=4.8(2), X OH =1.0 [1]; K S =125(2) GPa, X OH = 0.71, [4]. These data suggest that chondrodite and clinohumite become less compressible with increasing F content.
