Ferro-nyboite is newly found in a jadeite-bearing fels of the ultra high-pressure Brossasco-Isasca unit (BIU), southern Dora-Maira Massif, Western Alps, Italy. At the ultra high-pressure climax, the jadeite-bearing fels was mainly composed of jadeite, garnet, phengite and coesite. During an early stage of the retrograde path, omphacite, ferro-nyboite to katophorite and albite developed at the expense of peak phases. With a continuation of the retrograde process, the omphacite changed its composition through aegirine-augite to almost jadeite-free aegirine, and the ferro-nyboite and katophorite were rimmed by Si-poor katophorite and ferro-alumino-taramite. Ferro-nyboite and katophorite occur as a reaction rim around almandine garnet and as idioblastic tabular grains in the albite matrix. The composition of the nyboite is richer in Fe 2+ than any other nyboite previously reported. Garnet-omphacite geothermobarometry gives about 500-570 °C and 12-15 kbar for the early retrogression stage. Under the similar inferred P-T conditions, Schertl et al. (1991) reported the development of glaucophane as a retrograde phase in highly magnesian rocks from Dora-Maira. This study suggests that ferro-nyboite, instead of ferro-glaucophane, is stable in local Na-, Al- and Fe-rich bulk compositions under low-temperature eclogite facies conditions
