The rock comes from Stichtite Hill in western Tasmania, the type locality for stichtite.  The host rocks are chromitic-magnetitic serpentinites of the Dundas Ultramafic Complex, a Cambrian-aged ophiolite that's been cut up by thrust faults.  Before metamorphism, the serpentinite was a chromitic dunite (as were several of the rocks in this ophiolites photo album).  Dunite is an ultramafic, intrusive igneous rock (peridotite) with >90% olivine.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The origin of stichtite is not yet completely resolved.  The stichtite masses have tiny black specks of chromite, which was a component of the original dunite.  What's seems to be clear is that the stichtite is derived from the chromite by hydrothermal metamorphism.  The details of the alteration process are still discussed in the literature.  The timing of stichtite formation is also unclear.  Several orogenic and thermal events affected the rocks of western Tasmania during the Devonian, Jurassic, Cretaceous, and Cenozoic.
