Meaning of "karpholite" in English

Karpholite is a rare mineral composed of a series of silicate compounds, typically forming in metamorphic rocks. It is characterized by its fibrous, needle-like crystals which are usually found in yellow or pale brown colors. Discovered in the early 19th century, karpholite is primarily composed of manganese, aluminum, and silicate. Because of its unique formation structure and its relatively rare occurrence, karpholite is of particular interest to mineralogists and geologists who are studying the processes and environments that give rise to more unusual mineral species.
