Peridotite is a coarse-grained, dark-colored intrusive igneous rock, which consists of minerals such as pyroxene and olivine. It usually contains olivine as the primary mineral in addition to other mafic minerals, such as amphiboles and pyroxenes. It is very low in silica and high in magnesium.
Diopside is found in ultramafic (kimberlite and peridotite) igneous rocks, and diopside-rich augite is common in mafic rocks, such as olivine basalt and andesite.Diopside is also found in a variety of metamorphic rocks, such as in contact metamorphosed skarns developed from high silica dolomites.It is an important mineral in the Earth 's mantle and is common in peridotite xenoliths erupted in kimberlite and alkali basalt.iopside is also found in a variety of metamorphic rocks, such as in contact metamorphosed skarns developed from high silica dolomites.
