Bachelite
Definition
A rare mineral or a structural petrographic variety described in old geological reference works, sometimes used as a spelling variant for industrial bakelite or as a regional name for a certain type of compact sedimentary rock. In contemporary vocabulary, it is monitored to prevent confusion with bakelite (the plastic material), representing a strictly technical term within a narrow geological niche.
