Hawk's-eye and Tiger's-eye
Light transmission - subtranslucent to opaque
Luster - a silky sheen that is improved markedly by cutting and polishing
Breakage - subconchoidal to irregular
Miscellany - chatoyant in a broad sense -- this is aptly described by Webster (1986) as follows: “A polished surface ... when turned towards the light often shows a series of lustrous bands alternating with bands of duller colour which show little silkly lustre. The beauty of the effect is enhanced by the fact that the fibres are not always perfectly straight; they may be curved and often have a sharp bend or twist at a certain place. [And,] a change in the incident light results in a reversal of the conditions, the dark bands becoming lustrous and the lustrous bands becoming dark.”; magnetic -- many of these gemrocks are attracted to a magnet because they commonly include bands (i.e., zones), which are typically thin and discontinuous, of magnetite.
Black star diopsid (sterndiopsid) Астеризм (в минералогии) — оптический эффект в кристаллах некоторых минералов, обработанных с образованием сферической или другой выпуклой криволинейной поверхности (кабошонах), проявляющийся в наблюдении звездообразной фигуры при освещении кристалла.

The original name of Sun Yatsen was Sun Wen (孫文) and his genealogical name was Sun Deming (孫德明).[1][5] As a child, his "milk name" was Dixiang (帝象).[1] The courtesy name of Sun Yat-sen was Zaizhi (載之), and his baptized name was Rixin (日新).[6] While at school in Hong Kong he got the name Yat Sen (逸仙; Hanyu pinyin: Yìxiān).[7] Sun Zhongshan (孫中山), the most popular of his Chinese names, came from the "Nakayama" (中山) of Nakayama Shō (中山樵), the Japanese name given to him by Miyazaki Touten.
Crinoids are an ancient fossil group that first appeared in the seas of the Middle Cambrian, about 300 million years before dinosaurs. They flourished in the Palaeozoic and Mesozoic, and some survive to the present day. Google:Star stones crinoids.
