Aggregate (geology)

In the Earth sciences, aggregate has three possible meanings.

Amphibole

Amphibole is a group of inosilicate minerals, forming prism or needlelike crystals, composed of double chain tetrahedra, linked at the vertices and generally containing ions of iron and/or magnesium in their structures.
