- Enstatite (properly orthoenstatite) is an end point of orthopyroxene, XYSi$_{2}$O$_{6}$, where X and Y are small-radius divalent cations. If either X or Y is replaced by a transition metal the system becomes a monoclinic clinopyroxene, in space group $C2/c$ #15.
- We also have data for a high-pressure, post-perovskite phase of MgSiO$_{3}$.
- The ICSD entry is from (Byström, 1943).
