Clinopinacoid :: Clinopinacoid (n.) The plane in crystals of the monoclinic system which is parallel to the vertical and the inclined lateral (clinidiagonal) axes.

Norite :: Norite (n.) A granular crystalline rock consisting essentially of a triclinic feldspar (as labradorite) and hypersthene.

Diabase :: Diabase (n.) A basic, dark-colored, holocrystalline, igneous rock, consisting essentially of a triclinic feldspar and pyroxene with magnetic iron; -- often limited to rocks pretertiary in age. It includes part of what was early called greenstone..

Whewellite :: Whewellite (n.) Calcium oxalate, occurring in colorless or white monoclinic crystals..

Clinically :: Clinically (adv.) In a clinical manner.

Clinodiagonal :: Clinodiagonal (n.) That diagonal or lateral axis in a monoclinic crystal which makes an oblique angle with the vertical axis. See Crystallization.

Oligoclase :: Oligoclase (n.) A triclinic soda-lime feldspar. See Feldspar.

Clinic :: Clinic (n.) One confined to the bed by sickness.

Pyroxene :: Pyroxene (n.) A common mineral occurring in monoclinic crystals, with a prismatic angle of nearly 90¡, and also in massive forms which are often laminated. It varies in color from white to dark green and black, and includes many varieties differing in color and composition, as diopside, malacolite, salite, coccolite, augite, etc. They are all silicates of lime and magnesia with sometimes alumina and iron. Pyroxene is an essential constituent of many rocks, especially basic igneous rocks, as basa

Clinical :: Clinical (v. i.) Alt. of Clini.

Babingtonite :: Babingtonite (n.) A mineral occurring in triclinic crystals approaching pyroxene in angle, and of a greenish black color. It is a silicate of iron, manganese, and lime..

Linarite :: Linarite (n.) A hydrous sulphate of lead and copper occurring in bright blue monoclinic crystals.

Triclinate :: Triclinate (a.) Triclinic.

Orthoclastic :: Orthoclastic (a.) Breaking in directions at right angles to each other; -- said of the monoclinic feldspars.

Clinic :: Clinic (v. i.) Of or pertaining to a bed, especially, a sick bed..

Brewsterite :: Brewsterite (n.) A rare zeolitic mineral occurring in white monoclinic crystals with pearly luster. It is a hydrous silicate of aluminia, baryta, and strontia..

Orthoclase :: Orthoclase (n.) Common or potash feldspar crystallizing in the monoclinic system and having two cleavages at right angles to each other. See Feldspar.
