Name:
Named in 1961 by Takeo Watanabe, Yoshio Takeuchi, and Jun Ito in honor of Toyofumi Yoshimura (吉村 豊文) (19 August 1905, Nara Prefecture - 25 November 1990), Professor of Mineralogy, Kyushu University, Japan. He specialized in manganese deposits of Japan.
Compositionally related to zinkgruvanite, i.e., close to being its TiP-, or Ti-PO4-analogue, but with different type of linkages.

Interference Colours:
The colours simulate birefringence patterns seen in thin section under crossed polars. They do not take into account mineral colouration or opacity.
Michel-Levy Bar The default colours simulate the birefringence range for a 30 µm thin-section thickness. Adjust the slider to simulate a different thickness.
Grain Simulation You can rotate the grain simulation to show how this range might look as you rotated a sample under crossed polars.
