Specifically, its silicate minerals are mostly pyroxenes rather than other mafic minerals such as olivine and amphibole. In the field, pyroxene crystals display a stubby shape and square cross-section while amphiboles have a lozenge-shaped cross-section. Tanaka, Kenneth L. (1986). "The stratigraphy of Mars".

Supplement to Episodes, Vol. 12, No. 2.The definition of an economic mineral is broader. Economic minerals are extracted from the Earth by quarrying, mining and pumping and used in a wide range of applications related to construction, manufacturing, agriculture and energy supply.

Niels Stensen, more commonly known as Nicolas Steno (1638–1686), is credited with establishing four of the guiding principles of stratigraphy.
