eneseabikanalite

Eneseabikanalite is a fictional mineral species described for illustrative purposes in a hypothetical mineral catalog. It is characterized as a monoclinic silicate with a layered, phyllosilicate-like structure and a pale olive-green to yellowish-green appearance. The mineral is described as extremely rare, forming only in specialized metamorphic settings.

In terms of composition, eneseabikanalite is imagined to be rich in aluminum and silicon with minor iron and magnesium. The hypothetical empirical characteristics suggest a compact, sheet-containing framework typical of low-temperature metamorphic silicates, though exact stoichiometry is not standardized in this fictional account. The mineral is reported to have a vitreous to pearly luster and a pale white streak.

Physical properties commonly cited for eneseabikanalite include a Mohs hardness around 5 and a specific gravity near 3.0. Cleavage is described as imperfect along the [010] direction, and crystals, when present, are typically prismatic to tabular and reach only millimeter sizes in natural samples. The color is frequently noted as olive-green, sometimes with a slight yellow tinge, and pleochroism may be mild or absent.

Occurrence and paragenesis are described as forming in meta-sedimentary rocks subjected to low-grade metamorphism and localized hydrothermal activity. In this fictional setting, eneseabikanalite is often associated with muscovite, chlorite, and quartz, and is primarily of interest for mineral-description pedagogy rather than any industrial use.

The name combines the fictitious Enesea locality with a suffix used in related mineral names, underscoring its status as a constructed example rather than a described natural species. No commercial applications or safety concerns are attributed to this imaginary mineral.
