Structural model of the mineral pyroxene built from the right tetrahedra and octahedra.

This model was designed to illustrate the structure of one of the rock-forming silicates - pyroxene.

I plasticized such a model during several years of my teaching crystallography for geologists and believe me they do perfectly work. Much better then the simple pictures or even 3D-models on the screen.

The model is strong enough, but be carful, when falling down from the table it can break along the row of tetahedra.

Print several such a layers and ask students to built the whole structure, which can be also the good test on exam. Clynopyroxenes and orthopyroxnes can be assmbled in such a manner.

Another exercise is to built the structures from separate tetrahedra and octahedra (which models you can easily find). In this case, I recommend to use magnets, it will sufficiently save the time of model construction.
