Pleochroic Absorption

Pleochroic Absorption is the optical phenomenon in anisotropic minerals whereby the absorption of light varies with crystallographic orientation under plane-polarized light, resulting in distinct color or intensity changes as the mineral is rotated, distinguishing it from isotropic absorption behavior.
