The mineral you're referring to is "woolly" or "hairy" in its name due to the term "wool" found in "woolly" minerals. An example is "wollastonite," which is a calcium silicate mineral. The name is derived from the chemist William Hyde Wollaston, rather than an actual association with hair. However, if you're looking for a literal connection to a mammal's coat, the term "hair" doesn't directly apply to any specific mineral.

This adaptation suggests that the mammal is well-suited to environments where warmth is essential for survival.
