and general characteristics they are similar to the pyroxenes.

An unknown proportion of subducted continental crust returns to the surface as ultra-[pressure] (UHP) metamorphic terranes, which contain metamorphic coesite and/or diamond plus or minus unusual silicon-rich garnets and/or potassium-bearing pyroxenes.

Other minerals common in minor amounts include sodium-rich pyroxene, biotite, titanite, iron oxides, apatite, fluorite, melanite garnet, and zircon.

Phanerozoic impact layers: the Upper Eocene microkrystite or clinopyroxene spherule layer and the Cretaceous-Paleogene boundary (K/T boundary) layer.

Typical skarn minerals include pyroxene, garnet, idocrase, wollastonite, actinolite, magnetite or hematite, epidote and scapolite.

sources peridotite (variety harzburgite) so enriched, especially in potassium pyroxene and phlogopite-rich volumes within the mantle, not from peridotite alone.

These phenocrysts are pyroxenes (augite and pigeonite), plagioclases, opaque crystals such as titanium rich magnetite or ilmenite, and occasionally.
