Pyroxmangite

Pyroxmangite has the general chemical formula of MnSiO3. It is the high-pressure, low-temperature dimorph

It was first described in 1913 and named for the mineral group, pyroxenes It forms a series with pyroxferroite.

Pyroxmangite occurs in metamorphosed ore deposits rich in manganese. Associated minerals include spessartine , tephroite, pyrophanite and rhodochrosite
