Abstract
The melilites are a group of little-known silicate minerals. In nature, the commonest are rock-forming minerals found in the igneous rocks characterized by a low silica content (undersaturated rocks), in contact metamorphic rocks formed where igneous rocks invade impure limestones. They are also found in artificial slags and primitive meteorites, where they are an important component of the oldest material in the Solar System.
