 Encyclopedea Britannica has the best texts of researching minerals
and how they interrelate.
 Olivine is one of the magnesium silicates I say one becasue there are
several different chemical formulas. Olivine (Mg,Fe Si04)(at normal presure)
is a mixture of two minrerals  forrsterite and fayalite.  When
hydrated it is serpentine. see also the pyroxenes: enstatie, ferrosilate,
bronzite, hyperstene

I like most mineral guides but I prefer Simon and Shusters guide better....

<blockquote TYPE=CITE>Dear Greg and List;
 For great pictures, and excellent reading, I recomend the Audobon Guide
To Rocks and Minerals, $19 US.  It has the most complete work in a
form that common rock hounds and geologists can both understand.
 Most Libraries should have it, and for a look try any good book store.
 Best Reading,
 DAve F.

Members:
Hi, its Greg Shanos again. 
I am interested in obtaining information
 regarding minerals. 
For example, Olivine what is its elemental make-up,
 chemical structure, etc. 
Any good websites that would give this level of
 scientific information? 
Look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely
 Greg</blockquote>
