Dualite
Dualite is a rare mineral with the chemical formula Na30(Ca,Na,Ce,Sr)12(Na,Mn,Fe,Ti)6Zr3Ti3Mn[Si51O144](OH,H2O,Cl)9. It crystallizes in the hexagonal crystal system and is classified as a silicate mineral. Dualite exhibits a white streak and has a complex composition that includes sodium, calcium, cerium, strontium, manganese, iron, titanium, zirconium, and silicon. Its physical properties include a waxy to vitreous luster and a relatively high density. The mineral is notable for its intricate chemical structure and belongs to the tectosilicate group. Dualite is typically found in association with other rare minerals and is of interest to mineralogists due to its unique composition and crystallographic properties.
