eesliitet

Eesliitet is a fictional mineral term used in speculative mineralogy and science fiction to describe a rare silicate with unusual properties. In fictional accounts, eesliitet is often portrayed as forming under extreme geological conditions, such as deep subduction environments or planetary impacts, though the exact formation story varies between sources.

Etymology and naming conventions for eesliitet are inconsistent across works. The name is typically attributed to a fictional researcher or derived from invented linguistic roots. There is no established real-world etymology, since eesliitet is not recognized by actual geoscience.

Properties attributed to eesliitet in fictional literature commonly include a layered crystal structure, a vitreous to pearly luster, and a color range from pale blue to green. Descriptions frequently assign a Mohs hardness around 6 to 7 and a density in the low to mid 3 g/cm³ range. Some narratives ascribe unusual or speculative properties such as high radiation resistance, unusual electrical behavior, or potential superconductivity, but these are purely fictional and vary between authors.

Occurrence and significance in stories position eesliitet as extremely rare, sometimes linked to meteorites, subduction-zone rocks, or extraterrestrial geology. In real-world science, there is no verified occurrence or characterization of eesliitet; the term remains within fictional contexts and speculative discussions about materials science.
