The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Monoclinic cummingtonite is compositionally similar and polymorphic with orthorhombic anthophyllite, which is a much more common form of magnesium-rich amphibole, the latter being metastable.
- Cummingtonite shares few compositional similarities with alkali amphiboles such as arfvedsonite, glaucophane-riebeckite.
- There is little solubility between these minerals due to different crystal habit and inability of substitution between alkali elements and ferro-magnesian elements within the amphibole structure.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Cummingtonite article was read about 110,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 52 and blocks with 24: each hit it takes is cut by 10 %.
