Abstract/NotesSummaryIdentification of clinopyroxene lamellae in Bushveld-type orthopyroxene from the Greenhills Ultramafic Complex has been made on the basis of partial analysis by electron microprobe as well as by unit cell determination by prolonged exposure to X-rays of single crystals of orthopyroxene. Lamellae averaging Ca42Mg47Fe11 in composition with an approximate unit cell a 9·79, b 8·90, c 5·29 Å, β 106° 14′, occur in orthopyroxene Ca2Mg67Fe31 with unit cell a 18·28, b 8·85, c 5·20 Å. The Greenhills lamellae are of orientation identical to those described by Hess (1960), which share c and b axes with host orthopyroxene.
