Rutile is a mineral composed primarily of titanium dioxide, TiO2.
Rutile is the most common natural form of TiO2. Three rarer polymorphs of TiO2 are known:
Rutile has among the highest refractive indices at visible wavelengths of any known crystal, and also exhibits a particularly large birefringence and high dispersion. Owing to these properties, it is useful for the manufacture of certain optical elements, especially polarization optics, for longer visible and infrared wavelengths up to about 4.5μm.
Natural rutile may contain up to 10% iron and significant amounts of niobium and tantalum. Rutile derives its name from the Latin rutilus, red, in reference to the deep red color observed in some specimens when viewed by transmitted light.
Rutile is a common accessory mineral in high-temperature and high-pressure metamorphic rocks and in igneous rocks.
Se pintar um negócio na esquina
Corre e vê se eu estou lá na China
E se estiver, vê se me deixa em paz
Eu quero mais ficar bem longe desse tititi...
Pouco milho pra muito bico
Muita caca pra pouco penico
Não vou procurar sarna pra me coçar
Então desgruda e vai à luta
Chega de blá blá blá blá
Volta-e-meia, meia-volta volver
Saio de fino pra ninguém perceber
Essa galinhagem é mais chata que gilete
Nada mais furado do que papo de tiete!
