magnesiumdominated
Magnesiumdominated is an adjectival concept used in geology, mineralogy, and materials science to describe systems in which magnesium is the most abundant metal or the dominant cation by amount or mole fraction. It is not a formal mineral name; rather, it characterizes composition and the prevailing role of magnesium in minerals, rocks, or synthetic materials.
In geology and mineralogy, magnesium-dominated compositions occur in ultramafic rocks and in mineral assemblages where Mg
In materials science, magnesium-dominated materials or alloys are those in which magnesium is the primary element
Overall, magnesiumdominated describes systems where magnesium plays the leading compositional role, informing both formation history in
