There does seem to be inconsistent acceptance of specific minerals vs groups - why does muscovite appear for 'mica', but not biotite? Is amphibole a mineral or a type of mineral? Why does augite not show up for 'pyroxene'?
Sorry to be pedantic, but I guess that's partly why we're all here 😂
Also upon further digging, I believe hornblende amphibole (forgot to specify) can be used to refer to a dark amphibole. I just made this quiz to memorize rocks for a semester geology course :P
