The pyroxene structure is remarkably flexible in its ability to accommodate cations with different ionic radii and charges leading to a wide range of possible compositions [1] The main characteristic of the Px structure that is responsible for this structural flexibility is the ability of the tetrahedra along the silicate chains to rotate
