is a type of mineral, specifically a calcium titanium oxide mineral with the chemical formula CaTiO₃. It's named after Russian mineralogist Lev Perovski, who first discovered it in 1839. Perovskite has a unique crystal structure, which is a type of crystal structure known as a perovskite structure. This structure is composed of corner-sharing octahedral (TiO₆) units and dodecahedral (Ca) units.
