Quick, I have a science project due tomorrow.
Does anyone know the chemical formula for the hornblende mineral? (And would they be so kind as to post it?)

Well,

If there is a big difference between these two:

Ca2(Mg,Fe)4AlSi7AlO22(OH)2 = Ca2(Mg,Fe)4Al(Si7AlO22)(OH)2 ?

You could have just GOOGLED it like I did.

What is this "google" you speak of?

Actually, I did, but I got conflicting results. I needed the facts from the source of all knowledge (MacNN).

Blasfemur! Google is all knowing!

How could you get conflicting results? It was the first thing on the list.
Well, you are welcome.
