Description: A little more complicated one: resolution of the Genthelvite-Helvine problem (for example, with the great specimens from Huanggang). The upper spectrum corresponds to a nearly pure Genthelvite, the bottom to a pure Helvine and in the middle, the common situation: a solid solution. (Spectrum showed after deconvolution to find the principal contributions).
