Towards a detailed comprehension of the inertisation processes of amphibole asbestos. In situ high-temperature behaviour of fibrous tremolite [PDF]
Thermal behaviour of fibrous tremolite from Maryland, USA has been investigated in situ up to breakdown temperature. Tremolite can be found both as primary constituent and as contaminant in Asbestos Containing Materials (ACMs).

Coesite Discovery in Eclogites Confirms UHP Metamorphism in the Orlica‐Śnieżnik Dome (SW Poland)
ABSTRACT Eclogite lenses are exposed within the orthogneiss‐dominated core of the Orlica‐Śnieżnik Dome in the Sudetes, which forms the northeastern margin of the Bohemian Massif (Variscan Belt of Central Europe). The presence of coesite inclusions in garnet and omphacite confirms that these eclogites underwent ultrahigh‐pressure metamorphism.

XII. On the Tremolite of Cornwall. [PDF]
I do not know whether some observations upon a fossil of tlie Tremolite species, which I discovered some time since in the county of Cornwall, may be worthy the attention of the Geological Society. I was induced to record them for the following reasons. I was not aware that tremolite had ever been noticed before in our western counties.
