Summary

Description
English: Vaterite, Aragonite
Locality: San Vito quarry, San Vito, Ercolano, Monte Somma, Somma-Vesuvius Complex, Naples Province, Campania, Italy
Vaterites of the locality San Vito are microcrystalline with the largest crystals less than 2 mm across. This vaterite crystal is epitactic after aragonite. The crystal contains a triplet of aragonite inside it. At its terminus, twin seams of the aragonite triplet are visible. This greatly narrows stability and makes vaterite rarer at the locality.
Deutsch: Vaterit, Aragonit
Fundort: San Vito Steinbruch, Ercolano, Monte Somma, Provinz Neapel, Kampanien, Italien
Vaterite vom Fundort San Vito bilden nur Mikrokristalle mit eine Größe von unter 2 mm aus. Dieser Kristall ist innen epitaktisch mit Aragonit verwachsen. Am Kristallende sind die Kristallzwillinge gut sichtbar. Aufgrund dieser Tatsache des stark verengten Bereichs der Stabilität ist Vaterit selten an diesem Fundort.
