On the basis of the crystal-chemical arguments and heterovalent isomorphic substitution scheme M++T6+ ↔ M2++T5+, the palmierite supergroup can be formally divided into two groups: the palmierite group M12+M22+(T6+O4)2, and the tuite group M12+M222+(T5+O4)2. Currently, the palmierite group includes palmierite K2Pb(SO4)2, and kalistrontite K2Sr(SO4)2, whereas the tuite group combines tuite Ca3(PO4)2, mazorite Ba3(PO4)2, and gurimite Ba3(VO4)2. The isostructural supergroup members crystallise in space group R$bar{3}$m (no. 166). The palmierite-type crystal structure is characterised by a sheet arrangement composed of layers formed by M1O12 and M2O10 polyhedra separated by TO4 tetrahedra perpendicular to the c axis. The abundance of distinct ions, which may be hosted at the M and T sites (M = K, Na, Ca, Sr, Ba, Sr, Pb, Rb, Zn, Tl, Cs, Bi, NH4 and REE; T = Si, P, V, As, S, Se, Mo, Cr and W) implies many possible combinations, resulting in potentially new mineral species.

Dolníček","doi":"10.1180/mgm.2023.49","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1180/mgm.2023.49","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract A new occurrence of austinite, CaZnAsO4(OH), conichalcite, CaCuAsO4(OH), and zincolivenite, CuZnAsO4(OH), is described from the Tripi mine, Peloritani Mountains, Sicily, Italy. These species have been observed in euhedral crystals in vugs of a calcite vein and were characterised using single-crystal X-ray diffraction, electron microprobe analysis and micro-Raman spectroscopy. Austinite and conichalcite have isotypic relations, both crystallising in space group P212121. Unit-cell parameters of austinite are a = 7.4931(5), b = 9.0256(6), c = 5.9155(4) Å, V = 400.06(5) Å3; its crystal structure was refined on the basis of 1210 unique reflections with Fo > 4σ(Fo) and 77 least-square parameters to R1 = 0.0236. Conichalcite has unit-cell parameters a = 7.419(10), b = 9.111(11), c = 5.867(7) Å and V = 396.6(1.4) Å3; the diffraction quality of its available grains was not good enough to allow a high-quality structural refinement. Chemical formulae of austinite and conichalcite are Ca1.04(1)Zn0.86(4)Cu0.09(4)As0.98(2)P0.02(1)O4(OH)0.98 and Ca0.98(1)Fe2+0.02(4)Cu0.69(10)Zn0.30(6)As0.97(2)P0.03(1)O4(OH)0.98, respectively. The new chemical data on the austinite–conichalcite isotypic pair, coupled with previous analyses, supports a possible miscibility gap between the compositions (Zn0.25Cu0.75) and (Zn0.50Cu0.50). Zincolivenite has unit-cell parameters a = 8.4594(9), b = 8.5324(8), c = 5.9893(6) Å, V = 432.30(12) Å3 and space group Pnnm; its crystal structure was refined to R1 = 0.0230 for 523 unique reflections with Fo > 4σ(Fo) and 47 least-square parameters. Its chemical composition is Cu0.73(5)Zn1.25(5)As1.01(1)O4(OH)1.01. The refinement of the crystal structure supports the ordering of Cu and Zn in two different crystallographic sites. Micro-Raman spectra of austinite, conichalcite and zincolivenite are discussed, with a focus on the O–H stretching region where local Zn and Cu arrangements affect the position of Raman bands in zincolivenite. These arsenates probably play an environmental role in the Peloritani area, where the occurrence of high contents of some potentially toxic elements in soils and stream sediments has been reported.","PeriodicalId":18618,"journal":{"name":"Mineralogical Magazine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49512670","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It was found in cavities of a leucogranitic orthogneiss at the Casette quarry, Montoso, Bagnolo Piemonte, Cuneo Province, Piedmont, Italy. Crystals of aluminotaipingite-(CeCa) are light pink to pink, transparent or semi-transparent, with a vitreous lustre. It forms pyramidal crystals up to 0.07 mm in size and observed forms are {0 0 1}, {1 0 $bar{2}$}. The tenacity is brittle, no distinct cleavage is observed and the fracture is uneven. The mineral does not fluoresce in long- or short-wave ultraviolet light. The streak is white. Hardness (Mohs) = 5. The calculated density is 4.476 g cm–3. The mineral is trigonal, space group R3c, with a = 10.658(3), c = 37.865(9) Å, V = 3725(2) Å3 and Z = 6. The eight strongest powder X-ray diffraction lines are [dobs, Å (I, %) (h k l)]: 8.38(29)(0 1 2), 4.499(28)(2 0 2), 3.282(41)(2 1 4), 2.936(100)(0 2 10), 2.816(51)(1 2 8), 2.669(37)(2 2 0), 2.207 (29)(3 0 12) and 1.935(35)(2 3 8). The structure was refined to R =0.0306 for 2297 reflections with I >2σ(I). The crystal structure of aluminotaipingite-(CeCa) contains two nine-fold coordinated sites (A1 and A2), which are occupied mainly by lanthanides, and a third nine-fold coordinated A3 site containing almost equal amounts of lanthanides and Ca. The X site is vacant and at the octahedral M site aluminium prevails over Fe3+. Among the three independent T sites, T2 belongs to a (SiO4)4– anion, whereas T1 and T3 belong to (SiO3OH)3– anions. Fluorine is involved in coordination with the A1 and A3 sites.","PeriodicalId":18618,"journal":{"name":"Mineralogical Magazine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46789439","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Vaculovič","doi":"10.1180/mgm.2023.48","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1180/mgm.2023.48","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract Vanadium is the dominant trace element and chromophore in tanzanite, the most valued gemmological variety of zoisite. The structure of zoisite–tanzanite was obtained by structural refinement to assess the vanadium location in the zoisite structure. However, the small V content in tanzanite evidenced by electron microprobe and laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry limits the exact determination of the V position in the zoisite structure. Structural refinement revealed that the average bond length of the less distorted M1,2O6 octahedron is below 1.90 Å, and M3O6 has slightly longer bonds with an average of ca. 1.96 Å. The M1,2 site is slightly overbonded with a bond-valence sum (BVS) of 3.03 vu, whereas M3 is slightly underbonded (BVS = 2.78 vu). Optical absorption spectra revealed that most V is trivalent, but a small portion is probably in a four-valent state. Therefore, crystal field Superposition Model and Bond-Valence Model calculations were applied based on several necessary assumptions: (1) V occupies octahedral sites; and (2) it can occur in two oxidation states, V3+ or V4+. Crystal field Superposition Model calculations from the optical spectra indicated that V3+ prefers occupying the M1,2 site; the preference of V4+ from the present data was impossible to determine. Bond-Valence Model calculations revealed no unambiguous preference for V3+, although simple bond-length calculation suggests the preference of the M3 site. However, it is quite straightforward that the M1,2 site is better suitable for V4+. If the possible octahedral distortion is considered, the M1,2O6 octahedron is subject to a smaller change in distortion if occupied by V3+ than the M3O6 octahedron. Consequently, considering the results of both the crystal field Superposition Model and Bond-Valence Model calculations, we assume that both V3+ and V4+ prefer the M1,2 site.","PeriodicalId":18618,"journal":{"name":"Mineralogical Magazine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2023-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45661239","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
