Fassaite

"Fassaite is a variety of augite with a very low iron content, Ca(Mg,Fe,Al)(Si,Al)2O6. It is named after the Fassa Valley, Italy.

It is thought to be a contact mineral formed at high temperature on the interface between volcanic rocks and limestone. It is also reported in meteorites." - (en.wikipedia.org 09.03.2020)
