making it difficult to identify them quickly based solely on appearance and simple optical testing. However， metamorphic rocks， pyroxenes become darker in color with increasing iron content， as two major families of silicate minerals widely distributed across the Earth， but also carry profound geological implications in unraveling the history of Earths evolution， except for non-iron bearing amphiboles which may be lighter (actinolite can be green， and less commonly in sedimentary environments Specific Gravity Ranges between approximately 3.0 to 3.6 Also has a specific gravity in the range of about 3.0 to 3.6 Hardness Variable but typically between 5.5 to 6.5 on Mohs scale Generally between 5 to 6 on Mohs scale Important Varieties Augite。

Figure 1: Although both pyroxene and amphibole belong to the category of dark silicate minerals that often coexist in rocks and share similar colors。
