Armalcolite (Mg,Fe)Ti 2 O 5 is characteristic mineral of titanian basalts of the Moon, as well as lamproites, other alkaline magmatic Earth rocks, impactites and other formations. It is widely represented in island-arc low-alkaline plagiolherzolites and olivine gabbro-norite-dolerites of the Early-Bajocian Pervomaysk–Ayu-Dag complex of mesozoids in Rocky Crimea, specifically, in the littoral Balaklava cliffs near Sevastopol. Crystals of cumulative Mg-olivine contain the inclusions of alumomagnes
