Brookite
From Biocrawler, the free encyclopedia.
Brookite is a mineral consisting of titanium oxide, TiO2, and hence identical with rutile and anatase in composition, but crystallizing in the orthorhombic system (see crystal structure).
It was named for Henry James Brooke, English mineralogist, 1771 - 1857.
