Summary

Manganoan ilvaite forms as an early retrograde metamorphic phase from calcic rhodonite in the polymetamorphosed Pb-Zn sulphide/manganese silicate rocks at Broken Hill and from grossular-andradite in a skarn at Ban Ban. Ilvaite exists as a probable metastable phase into which Mn is apparently strongly partitioned. The manganoan ilvaites analysed contain up to 13·5 % MnO substituting for FeO and this substitution shifts the 020 peak.
