Description Cummingtonite

Some minerals, like gold and diamonds, just don't attract nerds that much...
But (Mg, Fe)<sub>7</sub>Si<sub>8</sub>O<sub>22</sub>(OH)<sub>2</sub> is sure to!
This mineral was first discovered in 1842, in Hampshire County, Massachusetts, USA. It was named after the location it was found in, and this laid the foundation for a joke known especially amongst geologists and chemists.
The name of the place was Cummington! And so the mineral was named cummingtonite. Obviously polysemous! And that's why you can now proudly wear it as a joke on a t-shirt ;).
