About TodorokiteHide

Formula:
(Na,Ca,K,Ba,Sr)1-x(Mn,Mg,Al)6O12 ยท 3-4H2O
Also given as (Ca,K,Na,Mg,Ba,Mn)(Mn,Mg,Al)6O12.3H2O.
Colour:
Purplish gray, brown to black; brown in transmitted light
Lustre:
Sub-Vitreous, Resinous, Greasy, Sub-Metallic
Hardness:
1½
Specific Gravity:
3.67
Crystal System:
Monoclinic
Name:
Named in 1934 by Toyofumi Yoshimura after its discovery locality, the Todoroki Mine, Hokkaido, Japan.
A relatively common Mn oxide that occurs in a variety of aggregate forms. Usually fibrous, either compact or isolated. Micaceous aggregates may be confused with ranciรฉite, fibrous forms with pyrolusite. Compare woodruffite.

As with birnessite, it may be a product of mineralization of fungal (e.g., Penicillium spp., Mucor spp., Rhizopus spp.) hyphae; as such is found in cave deposits and waters (vide Burford et al., 2003).
