Ferroan wodginite from Ankole, south-west Uganda

Well formed crystals of ferroan wodginite occur in the pegmatite called 'Nyanga 2' in Ankole, Uganda. The crystals invariably represent penetration twins. The unit cell parameters are: a0 = 9.48 Å, b0 = 11.42 Å, c0 = 5.12 Å, ß = 90°30'. Space group: C2/c (Cc). The separation of the do...
