More model informationThe essential feature of the pyroxene structure (single-chain silicates) is the presence of chains of corner-sharing (Si,Al)O4 tetrahedra, which have the composition (Si,Al)O3. The apical oxygens of the tetrahedra are shared on each side of a ribbon of MO6 octahedra (M1 site).

Note: The color code used in these models is CPK.
